    Haiku

    Long colorful, happy curve


    Blending in with the blue sky
    Hope after the rain.

    Freedom comes ahead.


    Flying above as a group
    The birds in the sky.

    An old silent fox


    Distantly stalking his prey
    At last, he's now full.

    The leaves fall softly.


    Red, orange, yellow, and brown
    Beautiful autumn.

    Blowing dandelions
    Flying with thousand wishes
    Straggle with the wind.

    1
    TANKA
    The leaves fall softly.
    Red, orange, yellow, and brown
    Beautiful autumn
    As cold winds brushed through the skin.
    The falling leaves are on me.

    Piling up pollen
    Transferring into their hives
    Making sweet honey
    As I add it to a snack
    Inedible in the mouth.
