Haiku



                         first day of spring
                         daffodils flown in
                         from Ireland

                         a sun-gold morning
                         rain soaked dafodils
                         lose their droop

                         a wild daffodil
                         in the ravine-
                         the distance I've come

A very nice sequence of haiku, Adelaide. Your photo has the feel-good factor in abundance...

Thank you Frank. Yes, spring flowers have the capacity to cheer even the gloomiest person, I think.

A very good group. Each one has its own tone, "personality."

Adelaide said...

Thank you Gillena and Bill.

This blustery cold wind we've been having is not doing my daffodils any good.
