white smoke
rises from rooftops
autumn morning
2569
crows yammering
building kingdoms
in the sky
2568
wheels of cars
muffled in leaves
round and round
2494r
thanksgiving dinner
everyone brings something
I brought this haiku
2336r
cricket at the curb
your fiddle case lies open
no one has spare change
2739
windy in the woods
pine cones jostle each other
the rustle of leaves
2656
a tide of leaves
curling and cresting
along the footpath
2653
pigeons lying still
or fallen pinecones
old eyes cannot tell
2619
even the crows shun
my halloween leftovers
breakfast for a week
2614
Halloween parade
only one crying crying
my son mighty Thor
2613r
compressor rattles
pumpkins and ghosts inflated
on my neighbor’s lawn
(another version appeared
in Failed Haiku)
2611r
in granny’s kitchen
cocky jack-o-lanterns
lose their grins
2610
an early moonrise
a hummingbird’s silhouette
flys across
2609
a whirl wind of leaves
crosses against the red light
unruly children
2608
leaves scrapping along
etching their tiny verses
as they’re carried off
2606
leaves whispering
shushing everyone
to hear fall coming
2601
a game is over
chess players roll up their boards
fall buries all kings
2592
does a leaf regret
the countless departures
the life left behind
2586
the branches
nicked with shadows
of dying leaves
