Lovely! I like the term ‘abbreviated days’.

Autumn mystery
colored leaves the last remains
of our summer dreams
these abbreviated days
their accompanying cold
for Kiwinana’s Weekly Tanka Prompt Challenge week 70–Mystery and dreams
UPDATE: and for Thotpurge’s Micropoetry Month: Nov 2017 #7

Thanks so much for the reblog, Reena! 😀
