Trees set themselves on
Fire, the wren takes flight to find
A green place to perch.
This is the last of the haiku as tomorrow is the Expressions: Poetry At the Pub's haiku challenge. I must say, I've grown to enjoy writing haiku and you never know I might post one every now and then.

Your haiku reflects well the autumnal scene - love the idea of the wren looking for a greener perch:)
such beautiful words...so much expressed in those three lines... and the photo is exquisite as well
great stuff,so much expressed in three lines.
A fiery Autumn it is! Just not easy to find greenery at this time. Nicely Kim!

haiku is not easy...to really say something in so few words...a lot of bad haiku out there...but i like yours...it is def alive...even in the season...smiles...
compact brilliance.very nice indeed.and the message...how life finds a way amidst all odds.inspiring.
You have written some beautiful haiku; but it seems in mhy area there are no 'trees on fire' any more. Only bare and desolate trees. I will look forward to seeing what you write next!
A true haiku, the metaphor cutting in the last line. Exquisite.
