Michael, as always a great haiku by you . I have to admit I had to look up equinox as I have never heard of it (lol) but what a perfect ending to the whole piece.

I cannot believe how fast this year has gone by, blink and we would have missed it right?

Edit: Forgot to mention the beautiful imagery (I blame my age lol) reminds me of crunching the leaves when smaller (hell, I still do it hehe)

Excellent Haiku and timely too. Where has the summer gone L :( Millyx

Michael Hello,

Such a beautiful description and so succinctly put.
like Em says i too love to crunch those crispy leaves, rather stamp and do a hopscotch dance....

But the kind of landscape that you are describing, the range of colours of autumn leaves and ripe fruits ready to fall into your laps... is something i have only seen on postcards....what i am witnessing right now-is heavy rains slashing down my window pane. It is still monsoon and green out here....

enjoyed your poem :) thank you.

This really is a genuinely stunning haiku from you. I know compliments can be thrown around left, right and centre on this site, but this is beautiful.
Words like 'crisp', 'fruit' and 'furl' make this a truly...scrumptious! that's it - a Scrumptious little read! an absolute pleasure that cheered me immensely!

Lovely, lovely work.

Michael, lovely haiku! Fall is my favorite season and your poem describes it to a T.

Im standing under that tree, catching apples!

Love this haiku!

Colorful! In just three lines you have brought the color of the changing season...nice.
