Spring In the Sunshine Coast

Spring has come in the Sunshine Coast! Carried by the wings of Humming birds flying through the Pacific Flyway, flowing like a dash of fresh air Spring has come here to stay! Look, there in the shallow beaches, Great Blue Herons wait for the prey, their aquatic love for eelgrass keeps them waiting the whole day, Herrings,Soles are busy in hide and seek play, Spring has finally come here, come here to stay! The blue water of the Pacific shining with bright sun rays, heady fragrance of lilacs thrilling the air whole day, it must be Miss Kim,as Miss Canada is still far away; Spring has finally come here, come here to stay! **Miss Kim and Miss Canada are two varieties of lilac. =============================

yes, kashinath, on that one poem you asked me about, it was based on a picture. There was a guy who used to be active here and he did many haiku contests with pictures. I miss those. Don't know where he went. Good night now. 2 and a half hours. I am outta here. I said that half an hour ago, but this time I mean it!

Very good piece. The repetition in last line of each stanza msakes ther poem very strong. Cleverly done. Middle verse very descriptive. Regards, Déirdre
