Come near, sit a spell, and listen to tales of old as I sit and rock by my fire. I'll serve you some cocoa and cookies as I tell you of the time long gone by when your Greats-greats once lived.

    I love the backlit leaves, and when they twirl before kissing the ground.

    I think nature allows favourites... I like the red ones the best. I like the "heat" element, so undoubtedly "Leaves of flaming hues" was the line I aligned with the most. Sure hope you enjoyed writing this!

    I probably read this about three times now and I can't help but notice the careful wording and attention to detail. Every word had their place and joined the rhythm with ease. Best of luck on the challenge MC 🤗❤️

    “Fall’s fading beauty”—this line makes it seem almost as though the leaves falling are a curtain call of sorts to the season, ushering in the end of autumn so that winter can take the stage. Nicely done!

  • So beautiful, both the haiku and image
