spring mist
collecting in the frills
of Iris’ skirt

oh how lovely! if i may be allowed a reply -
in the air: water drops
in the water: air bubbles
in between: swallow

Photo of green moss shaped like a heart on the ground amongst leaves. Typed on the photo is a haiku which reads: Bird’s eye view One land Shaped by Love —Kim Campbell, Books, Butterflies, & Being Photo by Kim Campbell
Love your versions, Susan! Simply gorgeous. Thanks for the inspiration 🪻
5/7/5:
tiny droplets dance
on purpled Iris edges –
singing in the rain
short form:
moisture-
adorned flowers
- passing rain

PS – ah, tricksy computer issues! Hope that all gets sorted for you soon.
HAIKU
Today the trees sing —
warming sun, caressing breeze.
Hallelujah! Spring!

TANKA
Once this was the land
of milk and honey — cows roamed
free, bees multiplied
in millions of hives. We need
to protect our cows and bees.

THE WAY TO GO IS NOT TO GO
a tanka
Not trying to move
forward, but deepening where
I am, deep down till
what’s holding releases me
and I am finally….free.

After being diagnosed with an eye disease...
TANKA
My eyes, you’ve shown me
faces I’ve loved, read for me,
gloried in nature
and art’s colorful displays,
helped me navigate my world.

I had a dream
there were clouds in my puddle
you're so Spring
#HaikuSaturday
(With apologies to Carly Simon!)
I miss you deeply
spring rains rinse away my grief
open wounds revealed.

Birds singing
Never shut up
Nor should they
Ope a hawk

What an inspiration you are Ms.A. 🤩
Each Saturday I tell my 97 year old special mom about #haikusaturday (usually I read yours, then I read her mine). Today I challenged her to make her own.😲🥰
*from Muriel
A refreshing stroll
Fresh air, trees, flowers and birds
Ah, Security
Ornamental onion, or summer snowflake, growing in a garden
Yearning for peace,
I almost overlook
the summer snowflake.

Now spring rain has passed
Iris bedazzled by dew
Ashimmer in sun
#HaikuSaturday #haiku #writingcommunity #halfbadpoetry
after rains
the purple iris
cries Spring

I SUPPOSE it COULD be a political comment! #HaikuSaturday #haiku
Now something closer to HOME! #HaikuSaturday #haiku
Last night was heart-pounding, nail-biting... and ended with huge sighs of relief! #NASA #ArtemisII #HaikuSaturday #haiku
A rose bush swallowing a house, I’ve seen this in the woods in NJ, and abandoned farms, and now on Bernal Heights hill

Looking up at sky
while putting off weekend chores.
Clouds, not judgements, pass.

water drops shimmer
on a frilled purple iris --
April shower
#haikuSaturday #haiku
feeling inspired-
in a sea of hope
the capsule splashes down -
team's over the moon!

spring dawn —
her wasp waist
wrapped in a kimono

Celebrating #HaikuSaturday while visiting my parents in Mississippi
banister teacup
awaits alert birdsongs in-
sects, connect the day

a gentle updraft…
we also say good-bye

Garden bed of creeping pink phlox
April’s full Pink Moon
is named for pink phlox in bloom,
both heralds of spring.
