Very lovely, Elaine. I love the contrast between the "flutter" of leaves - so soft - and the power of "flapping" wings as summer flies! This is so beautifully composed. Congratulations on your win!

So much depth in just three lines. This is wonderful!!! It's so good to have you back at The Soup sharing your talent with us. Keep up the good writing. Did I tell you I dusted off my novel and started working on it again? Your dedication to yours was my motivation. Thank you. Karen

Very descriptive Haiku. I can feel fall in the air and the chill of winter coming on. Sara
