Life Cycle Haiku, Haiku-San

Life Cycle, a Sunday Haiku: Haiku-San

Life Cycle, Haiku
Life Cycle, Haiku

While you looked away

A leaf turned from green to rust.

Life elsewhere goes on.

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.
