What a delightful picture to accompany your poem. It is indeed a kaleidoscope of colour and you have painted your own with vivid description and some nice alliteration. Well done and thanks for sharing. Franky

That is a lovely picture to go with the piece. It helps the reader picture spring in their minds. You also associate the season with the upcoming holiday.

Your words create a painting of nature that comes alive. "Droplets of raindrops dancing on petals", make nature as a live character that awakens as Easter arrives. Excellent 5-7-5 form that takes the reader out into nature.

Oh the beauty of spring. The tulip bulbs are starting to push where I live in West Canada. We need the color ever so badly to offset the greyness of the current world condition.
You've painted a lovely mental landscape.
Great job :)

You painted a beautiful picture in my mind with your words. We have icy cold winds today, and this touch of spring was pleasure. Great job. Shirley

Ciao mystery poet, you have two votes now!

It's not easy to write something fresh about Spring.

I live your opening verse , it's delight and different.


The third verse about the raindrops on the petals .. I still now love going outside just after it has rained and licking the raindrops from the leaves .. I knows it nutty but I adore doing it.

Ciao!

i liked this variation of the haiku format. I learned about another one today, the Haiku sonnet which is four 5-75 stanzas followed by a couple to make 14 lines total. this would nicely fit that format as well with a few minor tweeks.

    Thanks, Jake, I love well-crafted Haiku, very difficult.
