What a lovely depiction of autumn!
I love the use of the word russet. It's very beautiful. I also like to swirl down.
Thanks for sharing and good luck in the contest.

You have included SO much description in these few syllables. Your poem celebrates the lovely colors of fall. Alliteration is a very effectively
used device.

When I used to have horses, and we were riding through the woods, I always noticed there were more spider webs in the fall season. This posting brings back some wonderful memories of hours of woodland travel. Best wishes in the contest!

Fantastic, just spiders do their job as spin silken threads making their net and make naturally a colourful autumn symphony, their webs appear as russet leaves swirl down; well said, well done.

Awwww I do so love the image of your words in this Haiku. Very nicely done and the image you've chosen could only have been better if it had a spider's web filling the spaces between the leaves. :) Good luck with this writing.

the leaves look as though the spidery threads holds them in place, a temporary, fragile support against the wind. Is it a symphony or an al fresco painting?

All of those things are true.
But I wish that after I read 'symphony'
I could look back and recognize some musical
references. The first two line suggest nothing musical.

Just my opinion.

Peace, Lee

Zanya, I really like your haiku and love the mental image of russet leaves swirling to the flow and spin of autumn. Well done and a perfect poem for the Haiku contest.

This meets the contest requirements splendidly as you deliver a well penned haiku that adheres to all of the rules of form with the exception of the naming convention - should be titled haiku (spiders spin silken). The imagery and kigo shine through loud and clear with a solidly profound satori to complete the package. Good luck in the judging and thank you very much for sharing it.
