Haiku / Lanturne Suite-melancholy decay

A chapter in the book Haiku and Senryu Suites

We Also Decayed

by Badger_29


"Autumn wins you best by this- its mute appeal to sympathy for its decay" Robert Browning

Autumnal sunshine
filters though wise old Oak leaves
golden bars of light

fragrant summer rose
decays into tones of earth
an endless cycle

I, much like the rose
will also return to her;
my spirit will be

when that time arrives
I will gain understanding
flying free again

perhaps I'll return
as a fragrant one myself
casting to the wind

I
will be
like a rose
fragrant; lovely
then

when

zen 



 




thanks to Google for the image.

For the Lanturne, I couldn't decide on which word was best, so I put three words there.

Blessings,

Brother Badger
