​Haikus Composed At The Event:

Autumn red and gold 
Water flowing by the leaves 
Bright colours leaves trees 


Three stones hold the sky
Yellow, orange and ruby
Leaves falling slowly


Nature brings in the old 
Spring makes trees and flowers grow 
It was ever thus 


Red yellow orange
Such beautiful momiji
Thanks Jim Sawada


Les feuilles d’autome
Brille. Sur les arbres canadiens
L’hiver s’approche


Fiery red leaves on maple
Black dog chases stick without tire
Celebrate sister city


A beautiful day
With many colours today
Green, red, orange


Sound of waterfall
The orange and red leaves get
Blown by the wind


Bright red and yellow
Falling like yellow rain
Chilly breeze blowing


A place once scarred by man
Washed clean by autumns stream
Coming snow promises rest till spring
