Autumn is approaching us. But it is quite warm. (+ 10 C, +51 F). Trees know what is going on, anyway; continously yellow, red and brown leaves all over. Winter tyres to be changed soon etc. Preparing to start our warming systems.

visiting us
o cold autumn wind -
greetings from?




Issa, - perhaps? wrote this one:

o autumn wind
- a nice cup of tea?

feel old

a broken branch
among yellow leaves -
a distressed squirrel




This a variant for this text:

happy squirrel -
some more unused
cones left

Windy autumn -
after yellowed leaves
a lively rainfall

that rotten smell?
deep inside the forest
the autumn



Somehow I will admit that here is something familiar with Santoka's two-liner:

that sound
the rain?

Kawai Sora & autumn

Nobo is a mailing list where many haikuist are sending their haiku, and also discussing what is haiku. Today I sent a comment with a haiku there, and because everyone in this world is not a nobo-member I copy my text also here:

Knowing that a real haiku is something to do with any season, plus, my opinion also something very human, if not just in these lines but around it.

Just thinking Kawai Sora's haiku when he left Bashoo (for several days?!) and could not sleep well, my distant comment:

autumn side
of the mountains -
do you get along?
