Autumn

Colored leaves falling
A graceful dance in the wind
Petal soft landings

Smell of burning leaves
Scent drifting through crisp fall air
Youthful memories.

I need a darn quote. *chuckles*

(big hugggsssssss) Oh Tara, these are so so beautiful! (smiles) I love autumn, and just seeing those leaves flutter in your beautiful haikus made me remember when I was a little boy jumping around in them! (kiss on cheek) These are so gorgeous, I LOVE THEM!!! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Tara, thank you for sharing!

May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

Tara,

This is very pretty and brings many memories to mind.  I love the smell of burning leaves.  I still jump into piles of them in the fall.    Hey, I'll never get too old to do that.  It's fun!    Thanks for such a nice piece. *hugs*
