I See Dry leaf Fall.. Haiku



Haiku Heights #279

September Heights
Day 06 ~ TEACHER

I See Dry leaf Fall.


Strong angry winds
lash out at the tall tree;
I learn to bow

**

lessons from nature
scattered all around me;
I bow to pick

**

Ah, nature doesn't
force her teachings ever;
I see dry leaf fall

    Hi - RS ... you take nature as a teacher, this is a very nice idea ...

    A very different take...
    And this teacher called nature will teach only if we observe...
    Wonderful!!!

    Learning to submit to nature instead of conquering..interesting concept of nature as the teacher.

    Nature never tells. Nature always shows.

    I love the 2nd haiku the best especially the 3rd line. "I bow to pick" can be taken two ways.

    Lovely!

    Only if we understand these lessons taught to us by the nature.
    an ignorant child
    nature's library around
    busy picking nose
