Autumn

Autumn leaves whirling
Crunching as they are stepped on
Seasons come and go




COMMENTARY 
This haiku is based on the season autumn and the imagery of the leaves crunching as they are being stepped on, and the leaves whirling around in the autumn breeze. I was inspired to write this haiku whilst I was walking through the university, I was alone and it was very quiet, it gave me a chance to take in everything that was going on around me, and what I noticed the most was the weather. I wanted the image to be created of a typical autumn day, and the two key concepts that autumn is associated with. I redrafted this haiku and added the final line about seasons in order to make the haiku more relatable and to give it another meaning as well as just focusing on autumn.
