Very nice, an autumn to winter haiku. It was expressed so well in just three lines. Definitely deserving of gold. Congrats!

wow, that sounded egotistical blush I didn't mean it that way. It is just I enetered a few different haiku, and I was glad this was chosen above my others, even though I really like sonme of my others too. It sounds like you have studied the masters, and I appreciate people who understand the essence of haiku beyond syllable count, lollolol.

Thank you. I was thrilled that this is the one that won too!

Ahhhhaaaaa!
Wow! Beautiful haiku....I love the last line. The image is so nice and very light-hearted{'karumi' or light-heartedness is really a great thing to have in haiku}! Congrats on the gold. Well deserved!

lol, no I am not on mesculine, or LSD or anything like that- purple onions only refers to the contest that it's entered in, lol

Loved the way so few words said so much, creating natures change. though you confused my line of thoughts when you said purple onoins in your authors comments.
As the poem reminded me of season changes, though no matter what I think it is still a beautiful write. -
Wow this is so well written, I love the vivid images you created, which is a must in haiku. Now I want autumn
lol anyways back to the poem. It's beautiful. Thanks for sharing and following the rules best of luck!
