    You don't really need me to add to the galaxy of praise heaped on your splendid haiku. But, well done for autumn - just arriving here but never as spectacular as New England.

    What a beautiful fall poem. You have total control of the haiku with the perfect 5/7/5 syllable count.

    Love,

    nice, Erika ... to me the operative word is 'radiant' and it occurs after the images laid down and it is both adjective and adverb here because it reflects back to the former two lines and then forward through its own final line ... nice ... you have a beautiful little gem here ... my favorite kind
