Over the world's edge, The autumn sun, flinging gold. It spatters the leaves. |

Autumn's canvas waits Paint in splattering of fall Brush the stroke of time Lovely, Ed. When the power of love overcomes the love of power the world will know peace. -Jimi Hendrix [This message has been edited by vlraynes (09-16-2003 12:03 AM).] |

Touched by Fall’s cool breeze the leaves tremble sadly and blush soothed by the sun’s kiss [This message has been edited by Margherita (09-16-2003 10:01 AM).] |

Weep not for the frost. Death n'er looked more radiant Concealed beginnings. Locked beneath turned leaf. Balance of the sky in tears. Saving for next year. Cherish the good memories of the past and look forward to the adventure called Tomorrow. But above all... be kind to yourself today. |

Such wonderful and diverse haiku's. I've enjoyed reading each and every one. Leaves float softly down Guided by the gusty wind A colorful dance Hear Blessings dropping their blossoms all around you. |
