Resting in a warm,
golden slumber. They linger
to crunch underfoot.

A well-wrought Haiku!
This made me feel very cosy somehow. Great one!
Great!💖💗💕
Very impressive and vividly portrayed! Gorgeous image too.💖
Our very own Haiku champ Sandy, ladies and gentleman please give it up for Sandy. Heheh. Nice one Sandy @Sandy Gillman
This was really good. Love the way you started it. It made me want this to be longer, but also the crunch under the foot satisfied the ending. I could hear the sound of it. I like stepping on the crunchiest ones. Best of luck in the challenge, my friend 🤗❤️
The crunch underfoot! I can almost hear it. :D SO nice, Sandy.
I love how you portrayed them resting in a warm golden slumber. Such a beautiful Haiku!
Reading your poem I swear it’s like it came to life to me when I read the last line because it’s true when stepping on leaves there’s a certain sound to them! Great haiku!
Oh, nicely done, Sandy. Great entry <3
