That’s a beautiful plant—so many blooms! Migrant hummingbirds and butterflies appreciate lingering lantana and late asters here in Arkansas. I see lots of bees in fall flower photos on #bloomscrolling , too.

The bent petal emphasizes the drop. That’s what caught my eye and made me linger on first glance.

I’ve come back to your posts several times today and found other quote/photos you’ve posted that I like a lot, too.

Dramatic photo! ❤️the juxtaposition of “ring of fire” look of background and drop on petal in foreground.

Lying on its side,
An empty watering can
Tinkles in the rain.

sometimes for leaves
and all beginning again
starts with a fall

Are you following the haiku tradition of writing death poems? May we live to write many, as some of the Japanese haiku masters did!

I love seeing the world through your eyes. I miss getting out to see for myself; your sharing brings nature close where I can enjoy it🥰

Your fourteenth summer—
milky eyes lift up to mine.
What is it you see?

My hubby and our dog will be riverside today. I read them your haiku. They loved it, too. Thanks for putting it into words; you made us smile 🥰. I’m able go along when they hike lakeside, since our lakeside trail is tamer than yours.

#UpForAChallenge ?
Yes, I did post a haiku using the word “autumn”
yesterday. Did you?

Today can we write like the haiku masters, clearly suggesting the season without naming it?

outside my window—
on one branch, yellow leaves glow in the sun

These seem like the start of children’s picture book. Is that where you’re headed? Charming and calm—sweet.
