Autumn (haiku)

by David R Spellman

 
deciduous fate
befall leaves; conifers pine
enviously green

Clever comparison of deciduous and conifers! Those leaves will soon be turning bright yellows, reds, oranges, and golds, and mixed colors. With all of the rain they should be spectacular this year!

Subtle, the SCENE and the layer from which it was SEEN.

They envy the colors, but not the eventual demise, I bet. Great verse that is very ingenious!

Well said. I miss the seasons (the desert just don't beleive in them), so thanks for bringing fall to me so vividly. -bf
