    My favourite!
    I love autumn, the way that the colours change in the leaves and new life falls through the changes...
    Kaleidoscope is a perfect word for it

    They do dance!

    I can see you love Autumn as well. I just wrote a Haiku about the fall & my leaves were dancing as well. I love this entirely & especially the last line which pulls it all together so nicely:

    fall's kaleidoscope!

    Bravo for getting the word kaleidoscope into a Haiku!

    I really love the word 'kaleidoscope' the way you have used it here! This is such a vivid haiku - beautifully written and magical imagery! It makes me long for autumn - it is my favorite season good luck in the contest!

    Keep writing

    I like your description. It is a well written haiku. I liked "colors swirl in final dance, fall's kalieoscope". Good luck to you in the contest.
