Haiku - 12

a black crow swoops low the brisk autumn morn deceives-- a yellow leaf floats... ___________________________ A great memory ( so vivid ) A clear crisp Fall morning as I peered from my window ~ one old crow darted from his high perch ~ A morning treat, a meal. Only to quickly call off the hunt with a haphazard reckless turn to the west ~ one single falling leaf, quite deceitful........ To: P.D.
