Pleasure in AutumnStealing nuts from the squirrel
He rages; I smile
Oval wooden box
Fallen from the pecan tree
Valued when broken
Where are the loquats?
Hidden in next year's flower
Praying for no ice
Peppers were captured
Vinegar and glass hold them
Heat awaits the tongue
It was fun playing with these sort-of Haiku for the November edition of Garden Blogger's Muse Day . Unlike our friends in colder places, we feel no slowing down this month - there's too much to do! With more moderate day temperatures and the blessing of cooler nights we're happy to be digging, planting and transplanting. I'm deciding where to plant daffodil bulbs once the ground has cooled off a few more degrees. For the Austin gardeners this month isn't NOvember ... it's NOWvember! This post, "Harvest Haiku" was written for my blogspot blog "The Transplantable Rose" by Annie in Austin.
