Red Oak Leaf

Caught in golden grass
As red oak leaf drifts to earth
Seeks freedom of wind

    I am so pleased to see your seeded earth flourishing. What a wonderfully rich garden you have growing here. It is a thing of beauty Barbara.

    Truddle: Thanks. Now that I’ve read your lovely description of the drifter in a sea, I’m tempted to ‘re-arrange’ my haiku’s words.

    Robin and Aiyana: Thank you for your comments.

    Heather: Glad you enjoyed the blog and thanks for your lovely comments. Come visit again.

    Like what you might find in an Andrew Wyeth painting if you were to zoom in up close…
