Audrey Haick Poet Haiku

Naked, Shivering

there… solitary
on the street corner she stands
naked, shivering
~*~

Note:  Sorry, but there's no mystery here.  There is a little oak tree on the street corner (I've taken photos of her since her leaves began to change colors).  Then two days ago after a long, cold rain, all her leaves were gone!
