Even the chilled rain Is migrating southward in Perpetual drops. The five pm dark Is beginning to beat the Rush hour traffic home. Fire in the mums Fuel satiating the furnace Hunger in the wood. Pumpkins poised with fat Paunches on windswept porches, Bragging wilting rights. Sunkissed schoolboy knees Surrender to long pants and Breeze crisp as apples. |

These are beautiful, Wendy. You have mastered the haiku technique quite well. I especially enjoyed the ones about the chrysanthemums and pumpkins. ------------------ *Elizabeth* "Dwelt a maid belov'd and cherish'd by high and low, But with autumn leaf she perish'd, long time ago..." |

Haiku is my special gift so I really enjoyed yours..especially the middle three. Might I offer a fall haiku of my own? The shadows lengthen; morning leaves a fringe of frost on front porch pumpkins. ------------------ "We read and write poetry because we are members of the human race. And the human race is filled with passion.....the powerful play goes on and you may contribute a verse. What will your verse be?" --John Keating, Dead Poets Society |
