Galleons

Apologies for typo - using my tiny phone screen, on holiday

in glorious sun
an armada of gold leaves
glide in grace downstream

galleons sailing
in full majestic splendour
sunset waits in awe

Autumn leaves floating down a stream.How often we used to stand on a little footbridge watching them whilst walking the dog. Now it is an industrial estate. Ships that pass in the night, like so much plundered rural beauty. Your poem brought back those memories,Chris.

wonderful words my friend, I always like those little pieces that paint a scene with a glorious way, just like this one, it also sets the imagination to go drawing here and there...

Thank you Light. It was very beautiful to witness.

Christine, your alliteration is placed beautifully across the twin haiku form.
The poem gleams gold all over and drifts slow as molasses. Nicely done.

Dear Charlie, thank you for noticing the alliteration, I worked hard on it. Many thanks.

Lol .. I don't understand: you're the 2nd person this week to tell me 'read more'. But I read every day -- how much am I supposed to read?

[Chris Shaw]

LOL. It's not a personal message Charlie. It's a computer gliche which comes up on the site. I get them too. Puzzled me for a while until I saw other people were getting them :))
