WOW! A masterpiece Maggie ... so in touch with the classical haiku and the inspirational music of Karunesh's Japanese Spring. Thank you for sharing this beauty with us.
*blushing* Thank you, Kristjaan! The music truly was the inspiration for this one. Usually I had something pop into my mind before I saw the visuals or heard the music. Plus my computer actually worked to have the sound.
Thank you, jrb! I had it is a one liner at first but went back and added the first line. I thought it flowed better. Appreciate it when you really really like it ;-)
so pretty!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Lolly! First sign of spring for me is usually the green tint on the weeping willows long before other trees or plants start their greening.
DeleteI'm sure there must be times when the willows are weeping for reasons other than joy, don't you think? ;)

Yep, but these willows were happy they had buds on them ;-)
DeleteI love this--I grew up with a number of weeping willows in the neighborhood.

DeleteI was very taken by the idea of spring floating along the river - it seems to me spring does come in gently as though floating ! Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteWow Grace, this is one of my favourites of your I think. Very, very well done :)

A wonderful haiku... maybe a masterpiece... very good.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Bjorn! Masterpiece...hmmm. It flowed but "something" told me to add that first line. Internal collaboration.
