A Handful of Haiku: Autumn

I
Summer has moved out
Of temporary lodgings
Fall's lease begins 

II
Harvest moon, frosty
Nights, leaves changing hues to show
Autumn's here again

Dear Jim, your pair of haiku portray the transition of summer to Autumn so beautifully. I love the Fall season, and this line especially; "Harvest moon, frosty".. your imagery speaks to my soul. Splendid haiku, my friend.. ~Susan

'temporary lodgings' says it all to me. Thanks, Jim.

Yes, G. Seems as if just when we start to really complain about the heat...it's moved on. Thanks.

Enjoyed reading your Autumn Haiku. Autumn is something to talk about isn't it. We have had so much heat this summer that a little cool is surely welcomed. Thanks for sharing this one and for dropping by my page. Sara
