    Sorrow blinks tears
    Of Summer leaves,
    Beauty emerges, smiles.

    Ah slag! In Afrikaans 'slag met woorde' means 'you have a way with words' ... Thank you, I discovered your haiku before you could mention it ...

    Upon this hapless hour

    Stricken by higher powers

    grieve petal showers
