You have made excellent use of all of your syllables in this lovely piece.
Those last leaves are somewhat like people of a dying breed hanging on as long as they can!

Comment from Jeffrey L. Michaux
They do seem to be hanging on for dear life, don't they? It shows us that the changing of the guard is in the air, and the trees. I like this and enjoyed reading this well written work. Well done!

Comment from Sandra du Plessis
A very well-written haiku about effect of nature after a storm that leaves us with wonder and excitement when the last leaves still lingers on the unbroken branches.

You did an excellent job on this haiku - the last line is perfect. I also liked the autumn picture and background color that you chose. Best of luck in the contest. Keep writing.

I like your haiku, with the mighty oak's strong arms looking after those lingering solitary souls - the strong protecting the weak and lonely.
I see your haiku is titled 'after the storm' - but the oak tree withstood the gales of fate.

Comment from QC Poet
A Haiku without the 5-7-5 syllable count? Interesting submission and concept poem themed on recent fires, in South America seems possible in reading this also. Blessings and Good Luck in the contest. Prayers for Healing and Strength with Hope for All firefighters.
