Congrats Sam! Super interesting. If you read some of the older Japanese haiku they can be very "Buddhist" like, and your last line reminds me of that ... sort of like the circle of life of the recycling leaves. A very contemplative haiku ... nicely executed!

Sam, is this a "tongue in cheek"...and they'll be back next fall or a more subtle reference to the cycles of life in nature..methinks I know....good job.

Keep 'em thinking for mystery makes them hungry ;) One of the best things about verse is when words open up multiple avenues of thought-- I'm going to keep my answer close to the vest and let you decide sir. Thanks for the feedback, John-- I'm glad you enjoyed the read some. Have a good one my friend.
