Carpe Diem Haiku Kai: Autumn Sunlight

Dog runs in late sun
Grass carpet of dewy webs
Spiders may forgive

Written for Carpe Diem Haiku Kai: "Autumn Sunlight"
This is a new meme group for me. I was drawn to this prompt, as it reminded me of a scene this autumn when I was walking my dog. We were alone in the vast soccer fields of a nearby school on a weekend and the late slanting sun showed that the grasses were totally carpeted with spider webs. It was truly awesome, and I pondered how fleeting the beauty of the spiders' handiwork would be.

Really nice to see you here Lydia.. another place to have fun... Love how much of a story you manage to package into it.

Lovely pictures all - the photograph, your haiku, and the image of you and bonbon discovering such magic.

Do you suppose poetical spiders would write Octaves?

This is all excellent. But one problem; where's the picture of Bonbon running through all of that?

Blessings and Bear hugs!
