That's an authentic and well-done haiku as far as I am concerned. Please try your hand at more poetry. I murder the various forms, but the only way to master it is to keep writing, writing, writing.

Comment from shelley kaye
"I has 17 syllables" -- typo in notes? LOL!
a haiku is nature in 1-4 lines of 17 syllables OR LESS with two interconnecting lines and a satori (aha moment) written in present tense like a "snapshot in time"...
autumn breeze blows
stunning rich hues to adorn trees---
snuggle weather temps
anyway, thought i'd pop over and check this out - for your first haiku, it is really good! and the pic is awesome!
great imagery in this!
thank you for sharing
shelley :)

I'm not sure it has an aha moment, unless snuggling can be aha, maybe with the right person. LOL Thank you for being kind.
-
yea, it's a good aha moment - it goes along with the breeze... yet says more...
Comment from Pam Lonsdale
breezes blow - get rid of the "s"
One too many syllables in the last line
Don't worry about this - poetry gets better the more you write it. Just like prose.

Hmmm, thought I had that last line. I'll work on it. Thank you. I decided after the 's' of breeze, I'm down to 17 syllables, right?
-
I thought it had to be 5/7/5, but I didn't read the prompt. Helen or Karenina would know.

It isn't part of a contest. I don't do contest. I just wrote it, because of encouragement.
Comment from BethShelby
This is good poetry. There is no reason you shouldn't write poetry. I think that last line has 6 syllables instead of five, if this is a 5-7-5 poem. However, I think haikus can have more than five in the last line. Also wouldn't 'breezes blow' or 'breeze blows'?

Comment from royowen
I'm sorry I couldn't resist it Barbara, the last line on a haiku requires an aha moment, called a satori, but the 5/7/5 doesn't require that touch, but well done, blessings Roy
Suggestion : Autumn breezes blow(s) 2: trees adorned with bright garments, great weather predicted.

Poetry isn't my thing. I figured snugs are aha, right? LOL Just teasing. I am not a poet, and don't pretend to be.
Comment from lyenochka
I'm so glad that Aussie talked you into writing a poem! Yes, Autumn is a cozy time with the cooler weather and the stunning trees!
Some suggestions:
Autumn breezes blows (blow)
Trees adorn stunning rich hues (maybe: stunning rich hues adorn trees) Adorn is a transitive verb
Snuggly weather promised (6 syllables - maybe snuggly temps?

I love this time of year, although at the moment we seem to be having a mini heatwave in the UK which is quite pleasant. I'm actually looking forward to the darker nights. An excellent piece Barbara.

Comment from Begin Again
Your chosen illustration of fall leaves is outstanding, Barbara. It's three-d! I don't know the rules either but I love what you wrote. Three cheers and a well done!
Smiles, Carol
should the s be off either breezes or blows?
