A Forecast For Frost

~A Spring Haiku~ one little raindrop.. a bud on a branch calls.. chills send it away.. sunrays lightly spill.. a blade of grass stretches out.. forecast is for frost..

Flowers are confused at this time of year ..eagerly awaiting Spring but the chill of Winter still surrounds.. wonderful insight into the blade of grass stretching..luv that.. only to find it is still cold .. but your words so warm Michael... your Jersey Girl in Springtime mode forever and always with luv..

The blades and the buds are but victims of the season's fickle weather, Michael. The bud may succumb for the season, but the blade of grass will rise again when the frost is gone. I'd gladly trade places with you. It is already getting a tad too warm here. Awesome description of Mother Nature's power to fool even her own plants. Love, Carolyn
