Haiku: Signs Of Spring Fever

"Spring beckons! All things to the call respond; the trees are leaving and cashiers abscond." Ambrose Bierce

Signs of spring - forget me not blooms

 The flowering bud
looks keenly for eager mates...
Seeking love and more



Plants and bugs peek through
Fecundity on our minds
A lover's tiff calmed


 Today is a special day. Can you guess? Yep, it's the first day of spring! It’s official; it's time to take stock for our actions and embrace new ways of being.  I am thrilled that the plants and seeds we sowed will soon show their precious blooms. Recently, I walked around my yard and took a few pictures of our early flowers. I hope you enjoy them and the poems I’ve shared.

"Spring is when you feel like whistling even with a shoe full of slush." Doug Larson

signs of coming spring - the equinox unfolds

As night turns to day
Sun and moon woo equinox
Signs of  Spring fever

Dogs and cats in heat
Man's yearnings rise in tandem
Spring opens the cage...

With the arrival of spring comes cleaing and uncluttering our space. We rid ourselves of winter burdens and unfrl from our cocooned life... The warmth brings a sense of  invigoration or laziness. Some of us become moody and listless while others venture out into nature restless to shed winter's heavy clothing for light and sun. I'm of the latter group. It's been a long cold winter, and I'm ready for the joys of spring... What about you?

Haiku: Signs of Spring...

"You can cut all the flowers but you cannot keep spring from coming." Pablo Neruda

Haiku: Signs of Spring...
 A winged friend returns
Shared gifts of cool breeze, spring flowers
Sadness vanishes...


Today, the words are Butterfly and Coming of Spring


What is Carpe Diem?  Blog Owner, Kristjaan Panneman,  describes it as:  "a weblog on haiku. It's a new daily haiku meme where you can write a classical or non-classical haiku on a given prompt. Haiku is an ancient Japanese poetry form. A haiku has three short lines and describes a short moment (as short as the sound of a pebble thrown into water). Mostly a haiku counts 5-7-5 syllables and is sometimes called 'counted verse.'"
