the rain...the sun... and green in bloom... haiku reflections...

the quiver of green
leaves in bloom hold to the light
sun and earth as one.

Quiver of Green

warming be the sun, lambent be the sky

the yesternight of rains held by roots anew
a lushness of winter green blankets the ground
the grass wet and cool below my feet
the feel of Spring deep in Winter's embrace
blessed be the splendor of this day
feel I the alluring quiver of this green array.
