haiku retrospective cccxcix

march sunshine
drops of sap
on the old stump

march sunshine
the drone of horse flies
in the trees

march sunshine
the distant call
of a robin

march sunshine
the tap-tap-tapping
of an acorn woodpecker

march sunshine
spiderwebs all the way up
the redwood's trunk

march sunshine
tender red shoots
on the scrub oak

march sunshine
the fiddle tune climbs
the mountain

march sunshine
spanish moss
on the fallen oak branch

march sunshine
the treetops so still
against the blue sky

march sunshine
crushed petals
under the tulip tree
