---Bittersweet Vine

bittersweet vine twist like pipe curls on a finger blue birds sings bird song arias wake the sun-soaked cat napping feathers fly down laced twigs incubate the Robin’s blue eggs puss licks his whiskers lofted sparrow hawk warm basket of new born kittens noon whistle

I think the hawk is thinking of kitten food?

Nice set of haiku. I just caught an error in my work with "Roseville Sweetheart". Somehow, I missed typing in "you" in the last line.

Well if you were a mind to use this one I would just use "Bittersweet Vine". The title is just for the sake of having one and I don't like an additional 6 or 8 syllables influencing the poem. Chas
