crows caw in the hills
fallen chestnuts on the ground –
frozen in time
fireplace ashes
the old woman remembers –
leftover chestnuts
around the fire
reading Harry Potter books
– roasting new chestnuts
(c) G.s.k. ’14
Linked to Heeding Haiku with Ha
Reading Harry Potter while roasting chestnuts — would be lovely!!!!

but the memory popped up whilst writing the haiku so I included it.

Not half bad actually … gotten a little chilly lately and the air nips at one’s nose … but for the last three days we’ve had sun again and that certainly helps!
