fallen blossoms

an exquisite haiku.

C. Sandlin said...

All the fallen flowers can be quite a sight. I'm partial to mounds of spent camellias, who seem to have exhausted themselves, and the fluffs of crepe myrtle blossoms.

Lovely … a seasonal nod evoked so delicately - some skilful word crafting in this perfect haiku.

The petals are little boats for the raindrops to ride... lovely Gillena!
