I just love the artwork it illustrates your haiku almost perfectly, but there is certainly a serious side to your poem, indeed weather can play a big part in mood and motivation, well done, blessings Roy.

    Hi Roy,

    Thank you for your great review and thoughts. Yes, the seasonal change to fall with the shortened daylight hours does play on one?s moods.

    Best to make hay while the sun shines as they say LOL.

    Have a wonderful week, my friend :))

A twist on the dark side of Fall Humor, and a true precursor of what is to come. Our emotions are, without a doubt, affected by the weather and the time of year. It is sad to see the gold and orange leaves, so beautiful on the trees, reduced to a sodden mess on the ground. The colorful blooms are all dying, as is the vegetable gardens.
Nothing to be very happy about, except we have Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas coming, oh well.

    Hi Irish,

    You are spot on with your feelings? and the bright notes of Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas and ?don?t forget Valentines Day bring joy in the shortened days. So there?s that you so aptly point out LOL.

    Thank you for an interesting and honest review, Irish :))

    Have a good week,

You got that right. And the farther north you live, the darker it gets. Try this:

Fall equinox comes.
Summer days are old alums.
Let's break out the mums.

    Hi Paul,

    I love your haiku (contemporary haiku) it is phenomenal! But I was informed traditional haiku cannot rhyme :(

    So I had to make sure of that?this was written for Gypsy Blue Rose?s Haiku Club event? check it out if you?re interested. Go to the link that says Social then select Clubs and it will take you there.

    Thanks for a great review and chuckle :))

    I can't help rhyming. I'm not a Haiku fan, but I took a course that was taught by one of my friends and she won me over a little.

    Try the Club Event with Gypsy Blue Rose? it?ll be fun, Paul :))

    I?m getting ?the hang of haiku? just a little bit LOL

the comic is very funny, the haiku is more of a statement of the effects of fall on moods and is slightly more of a take on actual reality! Well done for the club. I love your Haikus, especially the one about the cat in the fog.

    Hi Tim,

    Thank you for your thoughts on this silly haiku. Thought I?d join Gypsy?s Club?

    Hope this seasonal change eases us into fall without the S.A.D.

    Have a good week, chin up, shoulders back? (my own morning orders)

    Always,
    Senyai

-Great artwork and
nice presentation, Senyai.
-I didn't know that about
Maxine, either.
-You wrote a good haiku
to go with it.
-The syllable count is good,
along with effective nature
and seasonal imagery.
-The closing line is very good, too,
and happens to many people!
