Falling Leaf
July 28, 2011
                                
                                
                                Red, yellow, and brown
 The leaf comes tumbling down
 Hugs the frozen ground

                                                                                                    I know it seems like that, but tumbling is supposed to read like tum-ble-ing, not tumb-ling. I'm not sure how to express that though.

                                                                                                    This haiku has beautiful imagery, but there's only six syllables instead of seven in the second line.
