Acorns abundant
Cover the picnic table
A feast for squirrels

A double rainbow
Ray of hope amid the storm
Sunshine stopped the rain

September’s sun sets
And October’s sun rises
Another month gone
Haiku

Rains are coming soon.
Are they the tears of summer
as it says goodbye?
Haiku

Harvest moon tonight
Shines down as I celebrate
Sukkot joyfully
Senryu–Haiku

Sun rises big and bright
Heat Wave has come upon us
Indian Summer dawns
Haiku

Summertime weather ends
Flowers still blooming on the deck
Never give up on life
Haiku

The last rose of summer
Competes with the red maple
August’s farewell
Haiku

The sky is ablaze
The horizon streaks orange
Summer sun is setting
Haiku
