1641

i used an internet image cropped it applied several filters and frame for this resulting haiga


call us back to
innate beauty with sure bursts -
flute-shaped furlings

by chance to gaze -
bright golden sunlight kissing
your blooms lightly

billow and swirl
ye winds of March April May -
astound yellows

they sing the songs
of joyous Easter season -
yellow poui

craft the mornings
repair the noon day angst
of fiery swoons

gently your hand
deal; for only a short while
these *poms exist

add a frame of
poesy; words to linger
as blossoms fall
© gillena cox

*poms = pom-poms shortened


Revisit
piercing
sunbeams
Sunday Lime 1

The golden aura of poui can still be seen on the mountain sides; so uplifting

The spring is such a delightful time.. The way a sunbeam glance and tease the eye.
