Slowly falling to the ground
Mimicing my heart
The wind blows softly
My heart pounds as it plumits
Crimson leaves fly too
The heart's tears crumple
The leaves fall back into place
Cold snow covers them
My heart is frozen
Frozen with the fallen leaves
Unwaking till spring
They return again
But my heart will not follow
Till spring is my love

Hello

Thank you so much for entering and for your efforts with this KU' Chain....however, there is something I would like to point out.....maybe you can see what I see

Try not to use Filler Words in Short Forms....especially a Ku'...or Lanturne....or Cinquain.....etc..... ~
Watch how many times you use the words, *the*........to me, this ruins your poetci voice and leaves me readin.....Prose"
I hope this makes sense.....God bless you!
1st, & 2nd Ku is common in thought.....think outside of the box ~
*Unawake......should be.....unawakening*
Never repeat words.....*frozen twice.....hearts....4 X's

I want to go forward in thought...not backwards

Bear ~

This interesting series appears to be a haiku/senryu mix with Fall/Love life theme. Nice!
