APRIL HAIKU

APRIL HAIKU

Frost hides in shadow,

Cold sunshine sublimes black ice…

Lilies stick out tongues!

–

Motorcycles parked,

Club-ride snakes long–through downtown–

Traffic:  parade rest!

–

Passover chicken,

Roasted lambs in short supply…

No time for lamb care.

–

Easter Bunny’s eggs,

Hung on trees seasonally…

Plastic stocks gain ground.

–

Bird migrations start,

Robins parse out snowy lawns…

Geese and ducks’ pit stop.

–

Peeper frogs’ fast love,

Amphibians unfreezing…

Deer savor new shoots!

–

New shoes and dresses,

Everyone radiates life…

Springtime dress in flowers!

–Jonathan Caswell

MIDWESTERN SNOW

MIDWESTERN SNOW—WHEN WILL IT GO?

 

The East is warm and sunny,

The Midwest weather is funny…

Shouldn’t this bring

A hint of spring,

Instead of more blizzard bunnies?!?
