a single leaf falls
it is not autumn
it is not time
a single leaf falls
he chose this
he drifts toward the ground
alone in silence
it is not time he chose this

I understood this to be a person who decides to commit suicide. "its not time" he is still young and has a life to live but "he chose this" because of "alone in silence". That is why he died and that is how he died - all alone.

I would split the last line in your poem into 2: It is not time/he chose this.

I really like this poem, it is very deep, but could still be perfected. I would give it a 9.

I understand what it is about, and think its good. I would give it a 8.5

It would also be really cool if you made a series of poems based around this one poem because I am wondering now what is happening to the man and what happened to the man before to make him coose the way he did.

It's a poem that asks a lot of questions. I like it!

it seems like it is about a path that a man chose. it almost sounds like he is getting ready to die by the leaves falling on the ground and by the aloneness in silence.

i would give it a 8-9. it's a good work.

It's a sad poem. It makes me think of someone who's lonely. Perhaps even...suicidal. It's an interesting poem - however it doesn't offer any hope and in this case...lets hope life doesn't imitate art.

Peace :)
