Thanks Kaile for replying to my senryu in Open Poetry 8, I will definately try this challenge, it may be difficult to write about 4 seasons in only three lines of a haiku, but I'll attempt it.  I love a challenge anyways.  Great idea Kaile!  
Your haiku is great.

Take care,
Melissa Honeybee

Kaile~
Interesting concept and quite lovely.
Is yours supposed to be 5-7-5 ?
I seem to only count 4 syllables in
the last sentence.  
But perhaps I am mistaken.
I may give this a try ... however,
I will post it in the CHALLENGE Forum.
Thanks for inviting me to read the
interesting takes on this.
There are some very creative Haiku's here.

kaile, this is too hard for me but a job well done to you! ...you must have viewed this scene from my back yard, as sometimes the leaves remain along the fence row until the coming spring...when somebody around here eventually must sweep, maybe!  yelp, I feel better now. LOL.  Marcy
