Haiku - Autumn

twirling wind trumpets
golden leaves rustle in waltz
veiled autumn tiptoes

Autumn: I believe autumn to be a season that symbolizes the circle of life with withering leaves in howling wind. The way nature embraces change with beauty to bloom again has a blessed serendipity that inspires me.

Love your musical references with trumpets and waltzes. Autumn is like the third movement of a symphony (in 3/4 time, like a waltz) where the year is close to ending and the seasons modulate from sowing the harvest into a time of rest and closure that winter represents. Excellent haiku, my dear friend, I congratulate your win ~ John
