shades of the season

On seeing Red Oaks in Autumn amidst all the green English oaks. I chose Haiku as the format because it links into the time of year.

Autumn canvas --

  Burning flame red oaks

Warm the heart

Author's Note

Well it warmed my heart, hopefully it will invoke something of your own Autumn memories.

And the warmth shall carry us through the winter months! Good stuff Michael.

Yes!
Okay, that was a short review but now I'll never se and feel autumn again without thinking of the flame red of oaks warming my senses 😊

haiku is perfect for this thought, well expressed. Autumn does warm the heart, heralding the holidays and crackling fires and big, thick blankets to dive under.
I am a very wordy ( no comments from the peanut gallery) woman but I do love haiku when it is well done. Many, if not most, people really do not understand it.
I live in Southern California (think Disneyland and Hollywood)... our winter fuss is pretty much show. When it rains here, people cannot drive worth a damn and god forbid if it ever snows, life will cease. But my daughters were born in Missouri and I remember white tulips in sparkling snow, a sunny morning after a storm, the day my daughter, Alexis was born. It was breathtakingly gorgeous.

thank you Softly - people here complain but I would hate to lose the seasons and all the plants the go with them.

Aye, it's a sight to behold as summer's canvas burns and dies
