Kites and Clouds

Clouds soar on the wind
randomly obscure the sun
colored kites dot sky

Poets see dreams far away
children tug strings when they fly

Haiku/Senryu 4/4/2019

Spring

As the springtime warms
the aggie and cat’s eye roll
on the playground grass

~~~

Just five inches down
a layer of frost remains
holding back the bulbs

~~~

two robin’s spring bath
splash water from garden pond
full of melted snow

~~~

On my neighbor’s porch
a plastic Easter lily
usurps Santa Claus

~~~

Little girls red boots
running from boys holding worms
-pure squealing delight

Spring 2 (3/27/2019)

Under melting snow
what remains are bare branches
waiting for the spring
