Hey Tim, what do you think about this? I read your haiku. The last word is “end.” How about if we do a mini-challenge where we take the last word of each other’s haiku to write our own, and keep going back and forth? Anyone can join in.
Like this:
End of summer finds
me sad, but looking forward
too, to crayoned leaves (Any takers?)
July 27, 2012 at 12:53 pm
leaves of autumn burn
bright until they shrivel brown
under the rake’s tines
July 27, 2012 at 1:01 pm
Tines gather leavings
of autumn, clear fall’s debris,
shifting to winter

Leaves some salt on my skin,
The one who’s always singing,
To whom I’m belonging…
thank you for inspiring me !

Belonging to earth
I step with care everywhere
so to do no harm
July 27, 2012 at 1:24 pm
Harm cannot touch me
I have a gold magic wand
That forever protects

Leaves one wanting more
long days of summer fading
into falling leaves
July 28, 2012 at 12:39 am
leaves turn gold, red-edged
twilight edges into day
the nights grow colder
