Bidding Farewell

Posted on October 24, 2012 by





Swirling colors drop
Orange, red, purple, yellow
Blazing wonder trails

Raining dappled leaves
Sprinkle, drizzle, shimmering
Majestic demise

    Well composed set of haiku Becca … Autumn is just the equivalent of decay and detachment. You have touched the Spirit of Basho with this set for Carpe Diem’s Special prompt. Thank you for participating and sharing on Carpe Diem.
    Namaste
