Here are my haiku contributions for the Fall Masterpiece challenge:

-------------------------

Trees sway in the wind.

Colors show the dying leaves.

Autumn comes again.

--------------------------

The chill in the air

has the squirrels skittering

to hide their stashes.

**Autumn's Ruse**

Leaves swept, yard pristine,

Turn around, a leafy scene,

Nature's sly routine.

Yes! Leaves in the fall seem like a never-ending chore. One moment, the leaves are gone and the next, your yard is filled with leaves again. Hate this phenomenon, but I feel this poem!

This is from about a month ago but i think still relevant!

A Cold-Snap Haiku 🍁:

One. Hidden. Cricket.

Downstairs.🦗 Useless predators.

Asleep on my lap.

Definitely still relevant! I LOVE this! Your use of punctuation in the second line is perfect! My cats are actually really great at murdering crickets (and many other creepy crawly bugs), but I can absolutely envision the chirping cricket downstairs and apathetic cats curled up in your lap doing NOTHING about it. LOL!
