First Autumn Day, a Sunday Haiku: Haiku-San
Early autumn leaves
Rustling rusty carpet
The child sweeps around.

Enjoy more Haiku in my new poetry and haiku book, As Good AS Gold:
“A book with an enormous heart for readers of all ages” (Singing Librarian Books)
“Kids of all ages will love As Good As Gold. It is wonderful to read out loud, for them to read to you or, with so much potential for joining in and taking turns” (Julia Thum Writes)
As Good As Gold is also available in Large Print, colorful pictures, a dyslexia friendly edition: get it on Amazon UK, Amazon US
I chose the name Haiku-San as it derives from Haiku, meaning unusual verse in Japanese (hai=unusual, ku=verse, strophe) and San, the honorific Japanese title when speaking about people. San is also the phonetic transcription of the first syllable of the English word Sunday, Sun-day hence Haiku-San, a Sunday feature on Alluring Creations involving Haiku I write.

I hope you enjoyed my haiku. Let me know your thoughts in comment below.
This is truly lovely. I like the children sweeping around the leaves that is really all that they do. Moving them from one place to another. Beautiful words. Hugs, Joni
Well, grown-ups could kick around some leaves and some smiles too, Joni 🙂
Thank you!
