Author notes

I thought I would actually give you a traditional, seasonal haiku in 4-5-4. Subtle, huh? J

    A classic haiku-
    tastier than a Big Mac
    with fries and root beer

    Green leaves turn rust-
    the dollar falls fast
    winter coming

      I heard hamburgers have replaced dollars as the US currency; but then you hear anything these days!

    You and tradition are not the most obvious bed fellettes

    At least, the leaves are doing what they always do in autumn. We've still got nature. I think people forget that too often. Well, we've still got nature if we're careful. It would be nice if this business on Wall Street might make peopl think a little more about non money matters.

    Sorry for the harangue and thanks for the haiku.

    Lol This is so very true. As they infused more paper money the value is plumiting fastert and faster.
    Very nicely done, and a perfect 'Ku.
