Longanimity [Haiku]

one last leaf,
its longanimity great,
falls -- unseen.

“Autumn” by Amy Lowell [w/ Audio]

All day I have watched the purple vine leaves
Fall into the water.
And now in the moonlight they still fall,
But each leaf is fringed with silver.

Autumn Gold [Haiku]

gold-sash Buddha
sits under Fall colors,
watching leaves drop.

Graveyard Trees [Haiku]

graveyard trees
turn crimson in the Fall, but
hold leaves stubbornly.

Fall Tenacity [Haiku]

dry and yellow,
 fall leaves hang on like a thick
  head of gray hair.

Autumn Rust [Haiku]

the year shows its age,
 a coating of rust flushes
  the hilltops.

Treetop Fall Drop [Haiku]

the treetop leaves
that catch early & late sun
are the first to fall.

Unhindered [Haiku]

fall leaves will drop,
 and the winter river view
  will be unhindered.
