(Mid-Autumn)
An autumn evening —
As the light fades,
Rain falls steadily.
Ashley composed this rainy, autumnal hokku.
The beautiful photo of raindrops on branches can be found here.

The light fades…the rain falls…both point to an increase in yin as autumn slowly develops into winter. I like the image that this hokku conjures-up in me. A little melancholic, but I like that. Another excellent hokku, Ash-tree! Thanks for allowing me to transplant it into the Garden.

Thanks Edo! Yes, a little melancholic, I’m glad you detected it! It is a little sad that we’re leaving the bright summer sun and the warm days!

This brings me such a sense of peace – like a curtain-call on the vibrancy of the daytime as the light fades and the sound of the rain wraps me in comfort. Thank you, Ashley!
