Haiku In Autumn

haiku in autumn

finches, warblers, wrens
and kinglets sing season's songs--
hues of leaves amaze

A stunning haiku, Connie. Your artistry captures the enchantment of Fall, my favorite season, with flair. A fiesta for the senses, such is the magic of your wonderfully gifted pen. Warmest wishes to you for a happy and fulfilling new year, my dear friend.. ~Susan

I am glad to know you enjoyed this haiku Susan. It did not make the long list so I had my doubts about it. I too love autumn best. I wish you a wonderful new year my friend. Thank you for your lovely comment. Blessings xxoo

Hi Connie, I do so love the Haiku form. This was a wonderful Haiku. I could picture the birds and hear the birdsong. Soon, such vibrant colours shall be upon us. Have a wonderful Friday. Hugs....Mike. XX

I like every single bird you mentioned and now I have to look up kinglets in the dictionary.

Caren, Google them and listen to their song. They sound so beautiful. Thank you my friend. I didn't get on the winning list, but then I didn't expect too because I recognize good haiku and know that this one did not have that Aha moment! Thank you. xxoo
