signs of autumn

Beautiful imagery ! Lovely ~ my favourite is S2. Also, great title !

I am delighted to see your Haiku on the winners' list. Nicely descriptive winning lines penned. Way to go. Back with congratulations. Sara K

these were amazing. I am surprised you did not get a higher score!

This set of autumn haiku fills my senses in unforgettable delight. The first Haiku let me feel the "sun's dust on spidery silk", then "the air with roses..." leaves a celestial scent that lingers on an on like opium, lastly " the trees adorned in brown..." feed my eyes with vivid colours of autumn. Congratulations Ink. A fave for me.

IE, congratulations on your winning placement with your lovely haiku set.

What a lovely set of haiku poems! Love the images!

Autumn is always a popular season, and you wrote wonders about the subject—excellent alliteration and imagery in such short poems.

IE, very timely and fun to read. The images you conjure are remarkable as always. You give me a lot to think about and generate a lot of happiness with your words!!

A fav, because it's so very beautiful! One of my fav sets of haiku so far!

You offer us beautiful imagery which only autumn is capable of inspiring, Empress! The right amount of alliteration does not go amiss! ~ Best regards // paul

Dear Empress, I always look for poems that take me on the journey to where they want to go. Yours are always those poems and I really love Haikus, Autumn is definitely my most favorite season, and I love it when a poet brings this all together to build journey from beginning to end. The journey started here: "wind whisks smoky veils" and ended here "fallen escapade". Thank you for that journey and it always lifts the soul. Empress this is: An Autumn Fav! - Blessings, My Dear Friend, Daniel

Autumn beautifully woven in haiku garlands dear Ink, seamlessly weaving one set into another. Nice work. If you want to see a spectacular autumn, Japan is the place in cherry blossom season, alas the season lasts only about a fortnight when all the flowers fall and the mountains are left bare - but there are always the Japanese maple trees that have astonishing colours, before they fall. Hugs Maria

I am always astounded by the immense beauty you create with every word dear friend, always praying for you :)

It's a beautiful poem of the sleepy autumn season. I can see the subdued orange and browns of the picturesque landscape. I send my compliments on these lovely haiku.

Lovely imagery, IE; autumn is indeed a color chant for the senses. Blessings my friend.

Three excellent haikus will do well in the contest. Great imagery. Best for a win.

A very lovely set of haikus, Ink. The final one is my favorite. This autumn gem is a fave. :)

Creative lines fill these Haiku. Must be a contest going on because I have seen several of this mora kind of ku. Thanks for sharing your talent with us. Sara K

Wow. You should do more haiku. Some say haiku is not to employ adjectives. But I have always disagreed with that. I like them with metaphor, imagery or even rhyme. I bet this scores high. A fave

My favourite season IE, you captured it well in your haiku, my favourite is the second one. Best of luck in the contest. Tom

N eerieeeee …. fallen escapade … sexy silky goodness u paint papi!!!! Channeling auburn autum in absolute gorgeousness

The full moon in September is known as the corn moon because it's when Native American tribes gathered their main crops, including corn, squash, pumpkins, beans, and wild rice. You are so knowledgeable with your imagery. I’m always learning something new from reading your poetry! Thank you.

These are very beautiful haikus ink. "sun’s dust on spidery silk" is definitely my favourite line in the first one. "opium kiss", Love that so much. "mirror the silent corn moon" is definitely my favourite line from your third poem. Gorgeous imagery

This piece beautifully intertwines imagery and sensation. I particularly love "sky undresses gold," which evokes a vivid transformation. The delicate interplay between nature and emotion creates a whimsical atmosphere, which paints a serene and introspective world. Phenomenal.

Signs of autumn it is .
