Autumn Haiku

Autumn Haiku

for your eyes only
as leaves fall upon teardrops
nature in meltdown

The Last Act

Leaf of life mutates
to waltz within winds of change
woodland stage awaits

Autumn's Way

nature's erosion
wreathe of gold yellow and red
death for to give life

for Skats contest
all poems inspired by the 10 images supplied.
