Maple Leaf in Fall: 4 Haiku

IMG_4536

I was the maple
green, strong, making food from light,
Then came the changes.

Longer nights chilled me,
what cold did change, color and more,
Called forth a new me.

Or a lone leaf? One of many,
Many leaves falling.

Under this tree gathering,
Until the wind comes.

Magical leaves dance;
Fallen trees hieroglyphics,
A Termite Pueblo.
