Haiku - Dawn

golden sunny dawn butterflies kiss jinias hummingbirds whistle Dawn: At dawn, spending unlimited time in my garden, which is a refuge for reflections, solitude and introspection, is the best jouissance life can bring. I am mesmerized with the way the butterflies, flowers and birds nurture our creative souls. August 4, 2020 "Traditional Haiku" - Nature Themed Premier Contest Sponsor: Tanis Kitchin

a beautiful scene. If I were the meditative type, for me this would be the best place just to sit and watch nature!

Thanks, Andrea. You are right - I am a bit of meditative type. In summer, I spend a lot of time in the backyard writing or painting.
