Another week has gone by. The Thursday Poets Rally week 57 has already begun. So another weeks challenge to write a few haiku for this Poets Rally.
Sometimes I don't have enough inspiration to write my haiku, but the last days there was an overwhelming inspiration by reading Haiku Vol. 3 by R.H.Blyth. In our haiku world we call the Haiku series (4 volumes) of Blyth "the Bible of haiku". Blyth has a great feeling with haiku of the ancient masters such as Matsuo Basho and Kobayashi Issa. Vol. 3 of this series is titled "summer-autumn". I love both seasons, but My heart begans beating a little bit harder when it's autumn. So I have chosen a few haiku with autumn as theme.

| autumn tranquility |
the colourful leaves
Ah! what a sight
mysterious moon
behind thin clouds
leaves falling
tears fall
this autumn day
has gone by
such sadness
without the full moon

| A cold winter day I think of days gone and days to come |

Lovely. I love fall but do not love the snow and cold and ice that follows all too soon.

Nice to meet you too. I am always on the search for poetry, so I ran into your site through the Poets Rally.

Nice haiku. Thanks for sharing.
I love the beauty of fall, so i really like a lot in your poem, especially the first verse.
These are beautiful. I love autumn as well. It's my favorite of the seasons.
Beautiful words and picture... I like the concept of summer-autumn days ~
Autumn is my favorite time of year ... over the beauty of Spring ... I always feel a transformational shift as the leaves turn into a majestic coat of colors. Thank you for sharing a great set of Haiku. :-)
Autumn is closing
the last leaves falling -
th first snow
