Seasons

Sunlight going down
dead leaves scattered all around
life at sixty-nine

You are in great company, Allen. I will be 67 the last day of May! Sweet haiku.

Very nicely penned...life at 69...it depends on how you see life at that age though..the sun could be going down...or rising...scattered leaves...all the things you have or haven't done...perhaps?
