A clever use of round the bend – Autumn can certainly test us for a variety of reasons

Thank you, Jae. I am always sad to see spring/summer over with they are my favorite times of the year, but these’s good things to be said for fall/winter.

Bekki, I always luv your animations and these no doubt, no less. Thanks for those poignant haiku reminders of 9/11
That hole you spoke of, the world shares and as Magaly said even in tryin to fill it with worth, we do need to remember ; how it got holed in the first place
much love…

I love the first haiku, for I’m a sucker for anything that tells of Nature’s brilliance. I see summer turning the corner to the beat of your poem.
The second piece poses such a difficult question… I don’t think that whole can be mended. I don’t think it should. Perhaps, we should fill it with wonderful lessons and better things… while never forgetting how it came to be holed.
