as falling leaves dance
among the orange flowers
feel the gentle breeze

Lovely, I like all the motion in this short poem, Ken.
I saw a notification that this haiku AND the previous one were linked to the post, but I don’t see the poem in Mister Linky.

Thanks, Merril. I used the previous haiku as a template and posted it before I changed the title, thus the double link – and I forgot Mr. Linky! I’ll do that now.
Thanks for the prompt. 🙂

It looks exactly like falling leaves dancing, but I would not have seen it without your words. (K)
