Notes About The Poem

Illusku-November

Shade cooling deepens
leaves fall carpeting damp soil;
autumn's hushed moments

Duke Beaufort November 3, 2025 at 10:38 AM Robert, I love that you can change gears and write something like this. Truly wonderful to appreciate nature and the beauty it provides for us to perceive. Smiles!!! Robert Gorelick November 4, 2025 at 12:44 PM Thx Duke. A little time off from politics--Far from madding crowd--Saves what I have left of my sanity.

I Am Anaya November 2, 2025 at 10:18 AM A beautifully worded nature haiku. Imagery galore, I love November! You've set an autumn mood and I'm enjoying. TyVm, Robert! Happy all saints day~ Robert Gorelick November 4, 2025 at 12:46 PM Your wit is unmatched for its playful beauty. I Am Anaya November 2, 2025 at 10:49 AM I'm now more grateful for November! Why is 10 afraid? Because 7 ate nine! Robert Gorelick November 2, 2025 at 10:42 AM Thx Anaya. Without November, autumn would lose its way, no? October would smash rudely into December. Too horrid to ponder! Robert
