    spider lily...
    the mute colors
    of the crowds

    yes... I remember Etsuko san taking me along a river side to see spider lilies along the banks and cosomos in the fields... autumn memories of my first visit to Japan.

  8. Hello, Gabi san,
    With the photo, absolutely stunning.
    Without the photo, I think I'd need the name of the flower within the haiku to understand what was going on.
