Seed of Glass
I knew you were different from the moment my eyes of flame met your eyes of glass. They reminded me of the chimes at the market. The way their multicolored surfaces caught and refracted the light would bring such joy to even my most mundane of days.

Aww, the leaves are falling asleep. Such a better thought than thinking about them dying. Feeds into the idea of the seasons being a continuous cycle very well. Well done!
This is fantastic - a lovely and lilting window into the leaf's journey. Excellent entry, Amanda!!
Wait, so the leaves fell languidly, as if they were falling asleep. Damn, this was good. Far better than good. I could see it in my mind sight. Not only did you make us feel, but you also showed us the relationship between the breeze and the leaves. Outstanding work Amanda🤗❤️
Oooo, like drifting into sleep. That was brilliant. Loved your Haiku!
Lovely descriptive thoughts and a beautiful image
