Blossoms, Eostre’s essence,
diminish into darkness.
Still, I am reborn.

Flags flew freely in the summer breeze. They consisted of a gray and white brain against a black background. Scales of gold sat just beneath the image of the organ. The sun rose at just the zenith and shared its light and warmth with the attendees to one of the country-states’ greatest accomplishments: the graduation of two women who had been in a halfway house and found their passions for art design and communications. Mala and Sheltham looked on with sunglasses and cheered the graduates. With the knowledge they had months to go before being up on that stage, they looked at each other and grinned. After the ceremony, they walked into a pizza restaurant that fit their budgets.

I could have sworn I read and commented on this! In any case, I loved it then and I still do. Wonderful use of the limited form. I did have to read it 3 times to fully appreciate it. It's funny how much I relate to your sentiment here. Often, my most important milestones happen in Fall, more so than Spring, yet literary devices demand that Spring is for rebirth and positive change. I feel that the times I use Spring to impress these, the actual fact is that I'm thinking of Fall.
GREAT hook at the end! That line is always an absolute bugger for me on a haiku, so I truly admire this one!
Love it! Love the fall! I clicked on this because the picture is gorgeous, but your words are stunning!
A very nice haiku about my favorite season. Well done!
This was so powerful! Loved your Haiku!
Nice Haiku! And love the library idea!
