    “Thanksgiving” and “Takes” seem to tie this together.

    This haiku is like a tiny bomb – maybe not a bomb, actually, something more life-affirming – it just explodes an image for me, with sound and weather, and everything. Looking back at the picture, your haiku made that single autumn leaf glow.

    I’ve used “murder of crows” a few times – love the words as they don’t mean what we might think.
