Fall (Haiku)

Back to Poetry gallery


Trees rain hues of flames

Cooler winds of harvest blow

times of change


(Japanese version: 

火の葉雨

収穻の凝風

売化の時代 ) 


a haiku dedicated to the nature of the season of Fall

Well, this is it! the long-awaited fall haiku to officially complete the 4 seasons of haikus: almost too late I hate to say (since winter begins officially on the winter solstice) but it was complete just at the end of fall.

(The Japanese translation is not a 100% accurate since Japanese and English are very different languages the syllables are different so the words used are slightly different but are about the same meaning).
