Monoku-ku

A cold wind chilled rain Dances with a warming sun …April’s goose bumps Mushy melting leaves Replenish the earth …As earthworms daydream An Easter ribbon Adorns a Robins nest …she sits silently Trouble in paradise A gang of dandelions …flash dancing The cat grins A rose garden litter box …how thoughtful
