rakish ku

by Kristina Woodhill

waving last goodbyes
ash tree butterflies swoop down
racing with my rake

I love it! I love all the fall flutterby races, whether with rake or my camera's shutter. Adorable, Kristina.

...K-gal, you made me grin a wonderous grin seeing your rake lapped by the butterFLYleaves, you go gal...a lovely ku...

Hee! Of course I anticipated something different with the word "rakish"...They fall faster that they can be gathered, sometimes. Nice Haiku.

What a lovely and skilfully worded poem, Kristina, and a very nice thought about the flying leaves of autumn.

Fun Haiku Kris. I can vision the race in my mind...CharMin

I love the image this evokes, your playfulness is only equaled in a flash-finish by the beauty of your language and the scene it paints. What draws me to this is the emotional response I feel on reading it.

I've just moved to TX, and I love seeing all the butterflies. Great write!
