For Frank Tassone’s haikai challenge. Two haiku as there are two themes proposed.
I see no geese
winging south—the north wind
is empty
rain the red leaves
puddles of dying flame
summer ashes
Haiku for geese and falling leaves

#Haiku Happenings #6: Jane Dougherty’s latest two haiku for my current #Haikai Challenge!
Thank you, Frank!
That second haiku captured my heart! Splendid descriptions! ❤
Thanks Colleen 🙂
They give me a shiver, particularly that empty sky. (K)
A sky without birds in it is an ominous sky for me.
The second one is particularly lovely.
Thank you 🙂
Beautiful poem, well written Jane!
