NEW AUTUMNAL HAIKU

NEW AUTUMNAL HAIKU

 

September sixteen,

Hooded jacket style preferred…

Flowers cowering.

–

First frost expected,

Football games in full scrimmage…

Mascots wear warm socks.

–

Branches dried too soon,

Taste of autumn in summer…

Golden not all good.

–

Turkeys gather fat,

Acorns litter many fields…

Squirrel-kind’s field day!

–

Ground mist oozes past,

Darker sooner than later…

Headlights grow auras.

–

Woodsmoke drifting in,

Smell the reapers bringing in…

Taste is bountiful.
