Ghost Writer Week
for Carpe Diem Haiku Kai is:
Ghost Writer #33 – Jen of Blog It Or Lose It
Prompt choice is Autumn Inspiration of Richard Wright
As the popcorn man
Is closing up his wagon,
Snow begins to fall.
∴∴∴∴∴∴
Autumn morning light
Dispels veil of summer dreams
One leaf at a time
◊◊◊
Autumn chill heightens
Crunch of tarnished jeweled leaves
Lost kitten meows

Oh, very nice! 🙂
Wright seems to have had a lot of cats in his haiku — I think he would have approved of this one too — the poor thing! The tarnished jewels — very nice — and dispelling that veil is a great image.

This sounds like early autumn to me.. And that poor kitten, many people still leave the cats after keeping them a summer…

LOL — Ohhh thank you, but that’s ok … I think I’ll stay right where I am … I would have to permanently hibernate each winter and not see the light of day. The edges of the Witch of November has arrived — and I dread tomorrow’s chill. Wishing I had a fireplace. 😀
