Smile~This seems to be such as a metaphor!?~"Morning glories race~a planted shovel becomes~a willing playground"....Well, who's the shovel? And, who are the morning glories? And where is the playground? Smile, these are the only three questions I have!!!?~For there could be many different possible answers within reality!!?:):)....cont....

How cute, Laurie. A shovel left a little too long and whala!!! A morning glory surprise. I love morning glories. I do hope that you have another shovel. They're harded to transplant. Thank you for this beautiful, haiku. Keep writing. Love, Dane

I got a mental picture of how much you enjoy your garden, Laurie. "A willing playground"... is a striking line, and "Morning glories race": a bright and colorful image. The "planted shovel" : just a geniality you choose to create an unique metaphoric comparison. Do I have to say that I love this haiku?...No, right? That's what i thought. Ruben.

Beautiful image, Laurie! You and Raul have mastered this poetic form well. I planted some morning glories near the screen around the backyard pool one year. They grew, clinging to the screen and bloomed every morning like a bright, violet carpet. Lovely poem about one of nature's most beautiful gifts.

Wow ... look at the contest ... the music of playing children rinsing the rancid air of care, ... the bloom of flowers shovelled under ... fantastic write.
