Lovely idea!
Crisp autumn breezes
blow orange, russet and gold
leaves that crunch the earth.

Pick a big pumpkin,
Sketch a scary face, then there's
My Jack-O-lantern.

For those who haven't tried tanka, they are syllable counted 5-7-5-7-7 and each line tends to stand alone, not "wrap" to the next line

Letter to the Dead
Blank words on a page
Staring, still staring, again
My hand stayed by loss
