They skip, they leap, they dance, they fly
Till on their lovers breast they lie,
Up again once more they prance
You may not give a second glance.
As Autumn into Winter flows
Winds pick up and start to blow,
Choose myriad colours from the trees
And start the ball of Autumn leaves.
Do you not watch them as they fly?
From one love to another hie,
While we dance life's eternal waltz
Then like the leaves we end the course.

The below is a computer-generated response from Neo, Neopoet's computer artificial intelligence:
This poem is centered around the theme of love and the passage of time, using the metaphor of dancing leaves to symbolize the transient nature of life and love. The structure of the poem is consistent, with four lines per stanza, which helps to create a rhythmic flow.
However, the poem could benefit from a more consistent rhyme scheme. The first stanza follows an ABCB rhyme scheme, while the second stanza follows an AABB rhyme scheme. The third stanza does not have a clear rhyme scheme. Consistency in rhyme scheme can help to create a more harmonious reading experience.
The language used in the poem is generally clear and evocative, with phrases such as "myriad colours from the trees" and "dance life's eternal waltz" effectively conveying vivid imagery and deeper themes. However, the phrase "From one love to another hie" is somewhat unclear. The word "hie" is archaic and may not be understood by all readers. Consider replacing it with a more commonly used word to ensure clarity.
The poem effectively uses the metaphor of the changing seasons to symbolize the passage of time. However, the connection between the dancing leaves and the lovers could be made more explicit. Consider adding more lines or stanzas to further develop this metaphor and deepen the exploration of the themes of love and transience.

Dear Alex,
The words of your poem swept me up with the blowing leaves. I found myself Dancing right along with you! my favorite lines are:
Do you not watch them as they fly?
