Agony

Sound of dying trees
Covered with orange and red
Such a wondrous death.

Someone wrote a poem about the leaves on trees dying and floating away as an allegory for children leaving their family or mother. It was sad. It is remarkable how you have written about the cycle of life in such a positive and beautiful way.

Without sadness there is no joy. Vice versa. Thank you for taking times commenting on my poems. Really appreciate it. :)

As if Mother Nature was giving the new life, away from this world...this was very deep in such few lines. Wonderful job!

I like your haiku Shirley.I think the title threw me off a bit when I read your lovely Haiku.

Thank you for the comment, M :) I used the word "agony" as title to describe the intense feelings of suffering of the dying nature, which is very lamentable.
