Friday

Bring Spring – A Haiku Bouquet for a Brighter Day



Bring Spring –
A Haiku Bouquet for a Brighter Day

Tugging twigs and thorns,
Digging in my garden beds –
Spring, come to my yard.

Frozen frosting melts;
Gloved fingers ache with cold.
Sun, come warm the earth.

Crunchy turf gives way,
Welcoming the brand-new growth.
Life, begin again.
