fat honeybee lurks
on the first forsythia
frightening children
#470- cascading
cascading from tree
white pear blossoms litter ground
replaced by green leaves
Filed under haiku, haiku heights
#469- summon
almost moonless night
spring breezes summon winter
dead leaves still rattle
Filed under haiku
#468- wonder
unexpected heat
children playing in sprinkler
wonder filled spring day
Filed under haiku, haiku heights
#467 – scorching
boys running through hose
scorching eighty degree day
screams fill the backyard
Filed under haiku
#466 – because I love Issa
As the great old trees
are marked for felling, the birds
build their new spring nests
A flowering plum
and a nightingale’s love song
he remains alone
#465 – pristine
waving in the breeze
newly opened pear blossoms
pristine spring beauty
Filed under haiku
#464 – old
alive and teeming
bursting cattails, frogs, turtles
old neighborhood pond
Filed under haiku, haiku heights
#463 -feast
astoundingly fat
alive in the spring garden
earthworms – robins feast
