Now that’s truly simply beautiful

[Cherrie]

😀thank you Julie

Short and sweetly sour, this poem well written. Oh, to die such a lonesome death, poor Autumn.

[Cherrie]

Thank you :) the notion just sat there in my mind.

[Pete]

so creatively well done. truly captures the spirit of fall. terrific haiku ... :)

[Cherrie]

Thank you Pete. That Winter wind has bite. I liked the idea of Winter killing off Autumn. Normally I write about the seasons yielding to each other. But being an Agatha Christie fan I couldn't help myself.

[Pete]

I adore nature. .what would life be without seasons? we have our seasons too. ... :)

[barleygirl]

I love how you find completely unusual ways to describe the standard falling leaves of autumn! (((HUGS)))

[Cherrie]

Yes a early Winter wind will be charged with the crime. Film at 11

I am not looking for winter at all, It gets too cold for me.
Awesome Haiku.

[jacob erin-cilberto]

love this one, Cherrie.
really fits what has happened here.
No more than a day of fall, and boom...along comes the wind and the trees are barren just like the month of November.

I like to write about the yielding and blending of the seasons, but every now and then I like the idea of them killing each other off (must be the Alfred Hitchcock in me).

Nicely done Cherrie

[Cherrie]

I always think it's funny we layer up for the season and the the trees dress down.

[Chris Shaw]

The glory of autumn turns into the bleak and greys of winter days. Everything sleeps, but the promise of spring is never far away, and that is where my heart lies. Beautifully visual Cherrie.

dearest Cherrie... a quaint Haiku that
touches our Winter Soul.
"Pray that once again...
Spring Tulips will multiply
Like Crocus Kisses..."
A Haiku for you dear Heart... gently, Pat

[Cherrie]

The idea was to cute to pass on . I'm glad you like it. :)
