Hint of Fall

Descending acorns 
Now under a hunters moon 
Falling with a plunk

Dear Laura, Many congratulations on your super win in Constance's contest. Wonderful Haiku you have written. So nice to see you here at the soup again. I am away for awhile, devoting my time to writing a novel. Thank you for your recent kind comments on my sonnet 'A Gift From God'. Elaine

The fall is not far away Laura. It seems to have appeared quicker this year, mainly as we never really had a summer. You sure have captured this lovely season through your words. Good luck in the contest, have a lovely weekend :)
