Haiku sequence


, , ,and the rains came

 

opening windows

the first rays of sunshine

after a hard rain

 

showers

splashing down the grassy slope

purple crocus

 

the blurred shades

of a watercolor garden

rain-streaked window

 

spring rain

the pond rises

to meet the willows

 

more rain

April ends

with a new pond

*Thanks, Adelaide, My long ago memory of Mom and Dad's house.. I was about 6 or 8 years old; "Sneeky"that black and grey tiger-cat.* _m

Thanks for your comments.
