  3. The syntax (and monoku layout) sort of falls off the edge… It's an unexpected ending, and especially effective for that. Also unexpected because love is usually associated with spring, not autumn, although some (like me) see autumn as a generative time… a great time to plant things, start school, fall in love… thanks for the haiku!

    Well done Bryan!
