Hi Jan, an excellent Haiku. The image painted is wonderful. A Lovely dream of Spring. So few words and yet they sing into the mind. Well Jan, this wonderful Haiku is richly deserving of a seven and it goes straight into my faves. Hugs....Mike. XX

intense imagery. I can visualize Jan. For the picture I am thankful. She is the deity of the forest. Love.

Thanks SO much Paul - I do struggle with the final line, but I penned this very quickly last night and am so pleased with the result:-) I found the image and then wrote the poem - usually it's the other way round:-) hugs Jan xx
