A great Senryu dear Robert. Very concise and to the point and you’re right - it’s just another day! Made me smile. Hope you are well and had a great Easter. Blessings to you :):)

All days are about the same to me, Robert. (until the last one) that will be the day, I can say, " That was quite a run!"

i always think it would be fun to have that date for my Bday, and be able to tell people I am only a very young age according to not having many birthdays on that date

That would be a coup! (I could see you writing a poem about that...)

Hello, Robert, I appreciated reading your Haiku this morning. I know many people who put special meanings on today, but it is true it is another day. Time is a human construct. Thanks for for the Haiku! - Blessings, Daniel

I think the leap day should be the day that deer hunting usually starts. That way the deer get another safe day. This was a fine, interesting haiku.

As a non hunter, I'm all for your interpretation of leap day.
