Aloes - Haiku

three aloes in spring
roots commingling with moist soil -
they exist as one

I'm intrigued by this haiku, Susan, and though the image is straightforward, I keep looking deeper. // Peaceful co-existence is what first comes to mind; secondly I also favour the idea of the Blessed Trinity...three in one. ~ Warm regards // paul

Thank you Silent One. I had never written a haiku before, this was the first I wrote and I fell in love with the form.., I guess you could say it was 'love at first write'... :) Thank you for your lovely comment that put a smile on my face... ~Susan
