Heralds

A single leaf falls
yellowish-gold sunlight fades-
fall flies with the geese.

Okay...one more shot and promise to leave you alone...just need to see if I'm getting the feel here....jimmy

oops...changed "Single petal falls"
to "A single leaf falls" for those who have read it already...makes more sense I think.

As far as I can tell, you have it down perfectly.
Thanks for the note on my other poem, and I'm sorry you have had this sadness as well.

JWesley~
I love it !
And ... you'll keep on doing them ...
cause Haiku has a way of coloring your thoughts in simplicity~
Great exercise for writers~

Most enjoyable~
