Ayyy ay, ay, Guapa, estoy tarde, but this is just sush a lovely autumn haiku. I also love the photo. I've had so many horses and the interaction between horse and hound is spot on. Wonderful. Un abrazo de tu amaiga Ulla:)))

I like your haiku great imagery and it is an autumn pass time. I always felt sorry for the poor little fox when I saw it television. I always thought the hunters were a bunch of bullies, lol. I am such a suck when it comes to animals.
Nice job.

I love the unique way you present the hound an fox to represent autumn. The first two line are connected perfectly and the satori is superb. I enjoyed this one very much. Lovely illustration to go with this one too.

loyal hound runs

ahead to flush the fox--

crisp Autumn morn
... Very nice, Gypsy.
Good nature sounds, coupled with a well composed haiku (featuring some nice alliteration in your second line), helped to place me right there in the scene.
Wonderfully well done...

loyal friend runs
ahead in search of prey--
crisp Autumn morn

Ah, Haiijin-Sensei,
You scared Grasshopper with your title. I thought your poem was about a friend abandoning Lady Blue and then I read your haiku. Your title is excellent, but Grasshopper confused by haiku until I read your notes. Without your notes, Grasshopper does not get it because the image to Grasshopper is general. Haiijin-Sensei taught Grasshopper to write concrete, present tense action.

    HAHAHA! You are right, the title is deceiving and funny when read by itself. Wow! Excellent review, my friend. Thank you very much!

It is wonderful the way animals can relate to and befriend another. Years ago I had a dog and cat that were the best of friends. They played together, and when I took the dog for a walk the cat liked to follow us. Lovely description of the autumn morning. The word "crisp" says a lot. I can see the dog and horse becoming good friends. Very distinctive atmosphere presented in the poem. judi

Autumn is indeed a big hunting time at least where I live so I see the kigo even without the use 'Autumn' in the last line.
I don't always post but I am enjoying the challenge and reading others' haiku. Thanks for starting this group.
