remember September

[Michael (MV)]

 
the dapple fades
from the fawn --
early fall


summer falls apart


autumn leaves
packed in bags
curbside




the dapple fades
from the fawn
as summer falls
apart, and leaves carried away
packed in bags curbside

Lovely imagery in the opening and closing stanzas. The summer line... it doesn’t feel necessary

[Michael (MV)]

Thanks, Bob,

I have added below the original
a study in 3 part harmony

Nice haiku, Michael.

Thanks, Billy

and Welcome back to the workshop

Makes me wonder about the various reasons why people no longer appear; and then sometimes reappear

Billy, wonderful to see your return.

I recall your interesr in and skill with haiku.
Here is another I reaped from this imagistic sow:

summer
raked in
body bags
