absorbing colours
scents, sounds within a garden
of Kentish design

silver birch unfolds
bright green leaves that drift in the 
pleasant, balmy breeze

April 4th

Bright yellow flowers
cover the forsythia
like a swarm of bees.

by Libby 2012

I love this haiku for its strong imagery and shouting colours. I had never thought of the flowers being like a swarm of bees so that was delightful to read and imagine. I found this uplifting and refreshing. Freya

inbetween greyness
neither hot nor cold; weather
is indecisive
