a single leaf drifts
mid-air; a thousand lifetimes
pause to catch its breath.

Such a surreal appeal, Natasha. Congratulations on your win!🍂
The picture is so perfect for these lines, golden stillness captured in a magical moment. Excellent haiku 😁
Congratulations!🥳 Beautiful haiku… “ mid-air; a thousand lifetimes”💖
Wooohooooo congratulations on your win! 🎉💖🎊🎉💖🎊
There’s a sense of anticipation here, be also a sense that life moves forward regardless of the drop. considering the limitation of haikus I’m impressed.
The bated breath. The pause in existence. The transition from the safety of the tree to the new reality that awaits. Awesome job!
