loved the 'white gown' image and the notion that the birds are tweeting 'too soon.' We've had 'fake spring' here for several days...our grass is greening out and buds have appeared on the trees. Anyway, your Haikus were lovely and a joy to read. Sara

Dear Constance, you present a bittersweet essence of early spring with stunning simplicity! The first image of barren trees, their "white gowns" lost, describes a melancholic yet hopeful picture. The whisper of the wind adds a layer of complexity, hinting at the fragility of winter's release. The second haiku brings joy but the birds' tweets echo the first's "too soon," suggesting a tension between nature's awakening and an unspoken winter You've beautifully created a great Haiku couplet. Blessings, - Daniel
