Question

Read the first haiku.

Mountain-rose petals
falling, falling, falling now . . .
waterfall music

Now, read the second haiku.

By that fallen house
the pear-tree stands full-blooming . . .
an ancient battle-site

What theme do both haiku have in common?

Beauty endures, even among destruction.
Death is inevitable, conquering all.
Nature is the original creator of melody.
The scars of war never truly fade.
