Rain cooled late spring afternoon
May days approaching

2 Haiku: Nature’s Poms Poms
Cherry tree in bloom
Robin’s dance through pink blossoms
Happy for the spring

Delicate petals
Ground covered in silky pink
Thick with fallen blooms

Haiku – Sky Fire 10
Hot light in the clouds
A red morning sunrise light
Bathed in sharp crimson

A spring world awakes
Outside my dining room glass
Robins prance about

Haiku – Not Again! 2
A cold bitter wind
Spring’s soothing calm warmth delayed
Winter’s harsh return

Haiku – Not Again!
Cold air approaching
In the distance, blue-grey skies
A winter storm soon

Cold icy thick glaze
Nature’s frozen white frosting
Diamond like twinkle

Poem – New Life
The morning cold breaks
Pierced by the warm sun rays
A world outside that’s so alive
Waiting on the summer haze
•
Magical fantastical spring
A harbinger of healing hope
Destroying winter’s frozen embrace
Natures way to cope

I wrote this a few mornings ago as I sat with my son while he ate his breakfast. I was sipping on coffee, enjoying the beautiful morning just glad to have a warm day in front of me. Now, today, I see it is ever so gently snowing. It isn’t much snow, barely can see it, but it is there. I think I called it snow drizzle because it is so faint. 34 degrees fahrenheit right now. Two days ago it was almost seventy degrees fahrenheit. Just crazy weather this year. Anybody else done with winter and wish it would just go far away?
By the way, Happy Saint Patrick’s Day!
Wearing of the green
On St Patrick’s Day it is customary to wear shamrocks and/or green clothing or accessories (the “wearing of the green”).
St Patrick is said to have used the shamrock, a three-leaved plant, to explain the Holy Trinity to the pagan Irish.[13][14] This story first appears in writing in 1726, though it may be older. In pagan Ireland, three was a significant number and the Irish had many triple deities.[15] The triple spiral symbol appears at many ancient megalithic sites in Ireland.

Haiku – Birds
Chirping in the spring
Sweet symphony of warm days
Happily they sing

The Blue Jay (Cyanocitta cristata) is a passerine bird in the family Corvidae, native to North America. It is resident through most of eastern and central United States and southern Canada, although western populations may be migratory. It breeds in both deciduous and coniferous forests, and is common near and in residential areas. It is predominately blue with a white chest and underparts, and a blue crest. It has a black, U-shaped collar around its neck and a black border behind the crest. Sexes are similar in size and plumage, and plumage does not vary throughout the year. Four subspecies of the Blue Jay are recognized.

Poem – Spring Rising 6
A season crawls out of the black
Awakened from its cold slumber
Kissed by the warmth of the sun
Birds sing praises as it returns

Trees full with oncoming spring
The Earth starts to thaw
