amber leaves whisper,
caught between earth and grey sky—
as summer dissolves.

If You Love Me, You'll Do It
I met Jason when I was five years old. I could say that I loved him from the moment I saw him. He was so handsome to me and I felt in awe by his presence. When they introduced him as the new kid in school, I wanted to be his friend right away. I remember it like it was yesterday. I remember his smile and how he didn't seem shy. He appeared confident and ready to learn. I waved at him and said "hello," before anyone else could even say a word. He sat next to me, and I asked him if he wanted to be friends. He looked so happy as he said, "Yes!"

Excellent haiku ♦️♦️♦️♦️
Wow! Nice flow and great imagery!!!
I love the sense of quiet, stillness conveyed by this! made me gasp and smile! another great entry!
I also like the summer dissolving, but I love the imagery that is evoked by "amber." Amber traffic lights demand slowing before a stop. Ancient insects are often found frozen in time, encased in amber. To me, autumn has always meant nature slowing down before the long pause of winter.
Powerful imagery and nicely done
Ooh "summer dissolves" that's an awesome line!
Oh wow, as summer dissolves, I especially loved that!
Gorgeous!

Beautiful images
Exactly, a taste of autumn and winter soon coming.
So peaceful ❤️
