Lin Lane Poet Haiku

Notes About The Poem

Autumn Haiku Set Contest by Tania Kitchin  * 9/21/24

autumn's entrance

in change of season
autumn makes a grand entrance ~
with subtly chilled winds

twirl then arabesque
leaves are dancing a ballet ~
unscripted, unstaged

one last performance
their swan song without encore ~
bare, the maple limbs

Beryl Edmonds September 25, 2024 at 10:15 AM A wonderful Haiku trio for ‘autumn’s entrance’ Lin. All the best… Beryl Lin Lane September 26, 2024 at 8:03 AM Thanks a bunch for reading these Haiku, Beryl and for your well wishes.

Andrea Dietrich September 24, 2024 at 1:12 PM This is very lovely. It's awesome reading all the autumn haiku around here. Lin Lane September 24, 2024 at 2:38 PM Thank you, Andrea. It certainly has put me in a festive mood to welcome a cooling off period.

Suzanne Delaney September 24, 2024 at 6:37 AM WOW Lin: I was struck by our similarity of theme for these haiku. You expressed them in such a blithe way. Great minds think almost alike eh? Lin Lane September 24, 2024 at 6:40 AM ;-) I'm not sure about the 'greatness' of my brain cells, but I can vouch for the sharpness of yours, so if you wish to compare us... I'm all for it. lol Thanks a lot, Suz.

Daniel Henry Rodgers September 21, 2024 at 2:06 PM Dear Lin, your Haikus are amazing as the words arabesque around in twirling ways. Autumn is a my favorite and you make my joy even greater with these well inked Haikus. Good Luck on the contest! - Blessings, My Dear Friend, Daniel Lin Lane September 22, 2024 at 5:54 PM I often feel falling leaves are dancing in air, as does a ballerina. Thank you ever so much for the kind comments, Daniel.

Jim Slaughter September 21, 2024 at 9:44 AM These are lovely, Lin. BOL in the contest. Lin Lane September 22, 2024 at 5:54 PM Thank you very much, Jim.

Tom Cunningham September 21, 2024 at 9:12 AM haiku perfection Lin, won't be long before I'm out sweeping them up. Hope your weekend is going well. Tom Lin Lane September 21, 2024 at 9:27 AM That's something I don't have to do. One of the few benefits of apartment living. Thank you, Tom.

Paula Goldsmith September 21, 2024 at 8:54 AM Your "Autumn's Entrance" is a lovely write. It will be here very soon. What a pretty picture. "Good Luck" Looks like we both did this one. Back with warm apple pie. Have a blessed/fun weekend................ Lin Lane September 21, 2024 at 9:26 AM Thank you, Paula for being such a supportive friend.

John Lawless September 21, 2024 at 8:25 AM and a wonderful swan song it is Lin. Nice group of Haiku leafs adrift in our minds Lin Lane September 21, 2024 at 9:26 AM I always feel sad when I see them on the ground, crushed underfoot when once they swayed so beautifully on their trees. Thank you, John.
