Heavy leaf-fall warning

Hearts glow, tremble, cling --
Then, all pour down with the rain,
Tumble in the wind.*

*(According to the 5-7-5 rule, the haiku must end here, but the work does not: so I'd like to add 5 more syllables: 5 hours of raking!  And yes, despite all the raking, the katsura is still my favourite tree for autumn colour and light.)

Hanami, April 9th

#1.
How many pass by
this bus shelter? In a rush,
blind to the pink blooms.

#2.
I sit on the bench
and wait. Not for the next bus -
but for sakura.

#3.
The buses come and go.
I'll stay until ten thousand
pink petals drift down.
