Fall - Three Haiku

FALL  (three Haiku) 

frosted lawn
black with sparrows
pecking 


gust of cold wind
blink of the eye
last leaf flutters down

snowy day
fox and geese
circle shrouded

Very lovely images of fall, Daver. Really enjoyed thinking of the snow-covered lawn "black with sparrows." The second verse reminded me of the brevity of life and the last one gave me a big smile. Very nicely done! Love, Carolyn
