Inspired by the theme at
Day 5 of September Heights is there, write a haiku on Autumn. Nice prompt I think. Autumn is one of my favorite seasons so I have to come up with a good one (smiles). What do I like of Autumn? I love the Autumn moon, she is gorgeous in this season. The feeling of loss and departing. All those different colors of the leaves, the sweet smell of decomposing leaves. I love the mushrooms of this season. And what of the weather? The weather can be great. It can be warm and sunny, but it can also be cold and rainy with thunderstorms and heavy wind. Ah! Autumn ... a wonderful season.
The beautiful autumn colors of the American Oak ... aren't they wonderful and so fragile.
vanishing summer
leaves begin to color
Autumn will soon be there
Autumn will soon be there
the heavy rains and storms collide
trees uprooted
trees uprooted
tiles broken on the streets
the force of nature
the force of nature
finally after the Autumn storm
the sight of the full moon
the sight of the full moon
brings back good memories
vanishing summer
A wonderful cascading haiku I think in which I have tried to paint Autumn ... you, my dear visitors, may decide if I have touched Autumn.
See you tomorrow.

The last verse expresses feelings of Autumn well I think.

Cascading just like the leaves! Lovely images.
Lovely cascading haiku...I do like vanishing summer ~
Autumn colours can leave even an uninspired, inspired!
Nice images!
Very nice cascading haiku showing us both the vigour and the tenderness of autumn.
I love the rhyme and flow in your haiku. Beautiful words.
Lovely to read you again, Kris! Yes, the sight of the full moon does bring back memories.
The sight of Full moon and Vanishing Summer, all worth in the end, no?
inspite of the forces of nature.
Not long ago I witnessed trees uprooted where I work. And you said it - 'force of nature.' Power in your haiku today.
Loved the use and choice of words...
Kudos!!!

A great cascade of haiku. Autumn isn't just about colour and falling leaves: equinoctial gales are so damaging if the leaves are still largely attached to trees!
To use your word, this is a beautiful cascading piece of poetry and very well done. Kudos! Mine is here: http://readinpleasure.wordpress.com/2012/09/05/haiku-heights-prompt-autumn/
wonderful verses lined up..loved reading all of them..
Beautiful description of autumn....Very beautiful set...
Good to see you having picked up this cascading style... good one..I could feel autumn here..
Will take you to my Milkyway.. midnight hour IST...a good prompt that..
RS:)
Wow, I don't usually think of autumn as packing such a punch. You must live in storm country.
I am in a fix..why my comments are vanishing...??
I think you nailed autumn in all its nuances....warm, cool, rainstorms - wonderful cascade of verses
After RS, u have taken this form to heart :) Liked the style, and also the way you've combined both moon and autumn together.
Hi Odyzz, I don't know why your comments vanish. Maybe ... it's my own fault. I am using a tablet with a 7 inches screen and sometimes I give the wrong comment by tapping the screen. I hope not that it is my fault, but if so ... I apologize for that.
Mesmerizing cascade. :)
September Heights - Autumn
Beautiful progression
Quite the cascade of imagery!
You've gone full circle, from vanishing summer to vanishing summer, with autumn sandwiched between!
My Lady Autumn
I love this poetry.
Inspiring and wonderful.
Thank you,
