the wind blows in change
trees wrestle with the newness
human meets nature

I liked this haiku. It was traditional with its syllable count, and was also nature-based(how they are supposed to be). It pleases me that you have used your talent with words to write this piece! Humans and trees go through many changes in life, and sometimes create such changes for each other. Keep up the great work!

You have it....a bit of both. I am basically stating that as the wind of change blows....the trees have to adapt and adjust to their leaves falling and their branches swaying....just as humans go through adjusting periods when the "figurative" wind of change blows in their path. It'a about transition. Hope that helps!

Interesting. I'm not entirely sure I understand everything that's going on here. Is it about nature meeting humans as they approach or humans meeting the sublime power that is nature, or a bit of both? Take care.

so true, we often shed our leaves (change out loves, our life) but seem to regroup come spring...I like this and I am always amazed by a haiku...so much in so few words
-
So you are saying that a one syllable word title will add to the piece? I've always been keen to longer title to haiku. Could you explain your side of this a bit more?
-
Belle, I was wondering where the title and poem was going also. this styke is a little harder for me. but i think you did a good job on this one. image and Visions
-
really a very different and cool haiku write Bell. only suggestion is to change the "The" as the first word in the first line and give it a one-syllable adjective, maybe something like "north" which can only add to the image.
overall, a really good piece of writing, and I enjoyed this read very much.

Lovely Haiku my dear. -Al

I am trying to show a "similarity" between us (humans) and trees (nature). So instead of just saying "Similar" I called it "The Similar", Thought it a bit more catchy!
-
I like this... I like the feeling I get from it.. why did you named it the similar? Can be, that it's because I'm dutch that I don't get it, but could you explain?
