I'm "Leaving" - Haikus 5-7-5 ~ * ~ Summer foliage Stripped away by autumn winds Leaving me naked ~ * ~ Sap runs down my spine Running from winter's cold wrath Time to shed my coat ~ * ~ Autumn winds threaten Mighty tree shivers and quakes Lost my summer clothes ~*~ LOL … Sorry for the play on words, but I couldn't resist! I'm not going anywhere!!!  . [This message has been edited by Kit McCallum (edited 09-27-2000).] |

Peeking around tree, Hoping for a glimpse of Kit As she feels the chill. Woo Hoo, she looks hot, Now that she is in the buff. I feel like a sap. But I can't help it! Kit is so darn alluring, Frolicking naked. Kit's haiku is great, While mine is just frivolous, Just like me at times. |

Kit, great haiku's and waht a motley following you have  Be well Kethry. "It is the image in the mind that links us to lost treasures; but it is the loss that shapes the image, gathers the flowers weaves the garland."- |

Kit, I did fall for it? I sat here, and thought oh my not another one. Well thank heavens you're staying, because where would I be without your beautiful words. Take care Marsha  You can tell I'm glad can't you, as for the poem, it's as wonderful as ever. |

Kit, LOL. Well you sure got my attention here!! I am glad to hear you are not leaving. Wonderful haikus by the way!! Lone Wolf Poetry should surprise by fine excess...it should strike the reader as a wording of his own highest thoughts and appear almost a remembrance. -J.Keats |

Great haikus Kit, very picturesque! And I had to laugh out loud at LongJohn's. Something sweet, something sort of grandish, sweeps my soul when thou art near... [email protected] |
