fall sheds its first leaves
     fine trees are becoming bare -
          golden coloured path

     chilly rain smells near
           no resting place for nature -
                 all bears hibernate

           fireflies lie torpid
                 underground or thick tree barks -
                       warm spring will wake all

Beautiful imagery, and guess what it's raining here right now. I can hear the sound of thunders. The wind is strong, seems like the trees will be empty soon. Blessings, friend

Autumnal trio of Haikus that leave me imaging what you've described with much care. It's 101 today, all week 94 degrees. We are hit with the climate change! Wishing you a beautiful Fall!

A pretty string of haikus, Victor. I love the images, especially the golden path, and the mention of sleeping fireflies. :)

Lovely autumnal haiku series, each vying with the other. This is the first time I am reading your haikus. They proclaim aloud that you are adept in this poetic form too

A striking string of autumnal haiku which you tackle with a capable pen, Victor. At least here in Malta we are still enjoying lovely weather, and I'd be swimming had I not come down with a bad cold :( Best regards // paul

Victor, your Haiku set, truly encapsulates the breathtaking transformation of nature as it gracefully transitions into the enchanting season of autumn. The vibrant colors of the foliage, ranging from fiery reds to earthy oranges and golden yellows, create a mesmerizing tapestry that seems to come alive before our eyes.

Yes, spring the time of rebirth. Fall is beautiful before the silhouetted trees are outlined in the dead of winter. Thanks for sharing this wonderful work with us and for your visit to my page. Sara

Ah, this chain of haikus is so beautiful, I'm loving the journey through different autumnal, chilly and then spring imageries.. Your words definitely create a profound atmosphere with delicate tapestry of most delicate feelings in these lines.. "golden coloured path", "no resting place for nature", "fireflies lie torpid", "warm spring will wake all" Absolutely enjoyed reading this!!
