? Spring, really ?
March 27, 2010
Today is a stormy day, rain and wind and cold temperatures again. 10°C less than these past days. Such will be our weekend according to the weather forecast… No wonder if some trees have adopted the “question mark attitude” and ask themselves questions about the real arrival of Spring !
Oh well, Happy Spring weekend to all anyway !
Spring (8 haiku)
spring breezes
blowing bubbles
puppy tails
spring breezes
whispering now
our secret
spring wind
sail boats in the fountain
my first kite
spring wind
Easter dresses
white flashes
spring wind
foul air
circus in town
spring wind
gazebo gone
April fool
spring wind
kite in the sky
pulling my hand
spring night
our last dance
song without end

Spring’s an illusion
Winter in lamb’s clothing
Will it break our hearts?
Oh Gerry, thank you 🙂 this is lovely. You are a poet !
Thanks for the beautiful haiku verses Isabelle.
..I hope Gerry is wrong this time. Spring must not be an illusion!
No, Spring is no illusion… although it seems to love playing hide and seek right now, between sunshine and freezing breeze, snowfalls on the crocuses and more surprises ! I loved those haiku too, Carsten.
Oh no spring is trickster! It appears beckoning her finger, asking us to get closer, and then retreats. How could she? (That’s the question mark on the tree…) Love your haiku, too!
Thanks Kathy, Spring is capricious these days 😉 and those haiku verses are from a poet I just discovered on the net, Ben Gieske, I’ll be reading more of him.

Loved the haiku… Makes me dream of hilltops with wild flowers in bloom and children playing with kites 🙂
In my part of the world, we are bang in the middle of a swealtering summer and its scorching here 🙂
Hello iniyaal, our climates are very different indeed, each at its own time and Season. I love looking at your countryside series and travel through Indian Summer. Beautiful !
