Disasters, Delights and Other Detours - 34. November Days
These five Haiku were written as autumn made its abrupt transition into winter. Any errors or problematic lines are my fault entirely.
Gold and scarlet leaves
float downstream on swift water,
passing to the sea.
*
Twelve November geese
fly southward in formation,
honking directions.
*
Icy rain and snow
cling to branches and wet bark,
baring the woods’ bones.
*
Orange maple leaves
fret and flutter on fresh snow,
searching for the grass.
*
Drab grey clouds hang low,
blowing mist through bare forests,
caressing the hills.
My deep thanks go to @AC Benus for his help in improving these. Leave a comment or a thought, if you are so moved. Thank you for reading, as always.
