old friends . . .
the garden fading
into twilight
—BILL KENNEY
Always a sucker for a twilight poem. :-)
Although the two parts of the haiku are close, and not juxtaposed as such, you have the lightness of touch that brings in the whole world, and years and years of friendship and kinship.
You have shown so much without pointing, and I feel as included as if I was sharing a memory with them right now.

poignant. Fading both the friends and the garden, but not gone. I like fading.

Nice one, Bill.
It lends itself to multiple interpretations.

Very beautiful…a clear demonstration of old friends wanting to stick together for long hours after seeing each other for ages
