1. That pic is outstanding and your words are just ‘wow!

2. Great response Björn … i really thought those trails were called ‘chemtrails’, but that’s maybe what conspiracy-thinkers say … You’ve written a nice haiku for this first ‘time-glass’ episode …

   • I heard on the radio about the chemtrail conspiracy.. but it’s actually called contrails… (bad enough anyway)

     • I will change it than … i want nothing to do with those conspiracy-theories

     • 🙂

3. the trees over here start losing their leaves already… in no time it will be winter..ugh… but so far we’re having lovely altweibersommer weather as we call it..smiles

5. This is nice but maybe use a different verb as you have leave/leaving twice?

6. so many words for that single moment…beautiful

7. The early migration commences, rightly so! Nicely Bjorn!

8. ha. when i lived in florida
   we used to look forward to that — well
   actually when they were leaving us
   once it warmed up…smiles.

9. Very nice. You capture the quiet irony so often lacking in English-language haiku.

10. Great take, Bjorn.

11. Bjorn, No autumn here. It’s still monsoon. 🙂 —Susan

12. I love the ‘visual’ of snowbirds leaving contrails…

13. I think maybe snowbirds in your country is the same as in the U.S. … that is people who fly to the south to warmer climes in the winter? If so one unerstand the contrails … Love the take on your haiku. Splendid.

    • Yes.. There was supposed to be a humor. 😉

      • And humor there was … I wasn’t sure that snowbirds were the same thing as I’d learnt from my sister.
