“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.

Spring Tricks [Haiku]

early Spring leaves,
catching the morning light,
look Autumn yellow.

Rain Begins [Haiku]

rain patters
onto the leaves overhead:
spring rain is here!

Budding [Senryū]

budding limbs:
vibrant growth unseen from
the city beyond.

Graveyard Trees [Haiku]

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

Heavy Rebel [Haiku]

autumn breezes 
send dry leaves tumbling, but for
 one heavy rebel.

Fall Tenacity [Haiku]

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

Chaotic Fall [Haiku]

rainy autumn day:
 wet leaves drop heavily
  as a lazy mob.

Willow River [Haiku]

willow leaves,
 slender and sinuous,
  hang to the river.

Autumn Colors [Haiku]

a mundane landscape -
 impossible to look away:
  autumn colors
