I like how you placed those leaves colored by frost on a “lonely” road.

This makes me think about the road not taken in Frost’s poem.

I, also, had to look up chow-chow, although upon reflection, I remembered that definition and have even eaten it. A perfect description of a conglomeration of different chopped-up leaves and water in the ditch. Ha.

Love the metaphor of chow-chow for fall’s colored leaves. It’s so great when someone comes up with something so unexpected and original. Your lovely single line will linger a long time. You did the epigraph proud!
