.haiku By Adeline

Rating: 4.5


October's fingers
Slip the golden gowns of trees
To woodland carpet

-
Life slips gently
Across the silken day
I'm not ready
-



A curtain of rain
Relentless, daring spume feeds
Into my progress

Miles of black-top loom
Shadows block the burning sun
Semi-trucks rally

Trees shedding their leaves and leaving a carpet under the trees. Very soothing and mellowed write. Rain falling and sometimes the sun takes a peek. Loved this.

the first one i love, the second one i don't understand (what does into my progress mean? ?) , and the third one i don't care for but at least i might understand what you mean (is a car driving down a highway, passing lots of big trucks which shade the car with each passing?) . thanks for sharing. the first one made up for the others.
