Lin, amazing how you can go back and forth between dark and something "delightful." This part of spring certainly does give us a lot to see and provides amazement to those of us who can appreciate the renewal. Smiles!

Boy, have we sprung a Spring party on Soup this year. Spring has sprung multiple times on most everyone's poetry list and the Spring contests just keep a'comin. Do you think we are enjoying Spring inside via Soup rather than actually going outside? Being silly. Your Monoku is simply loverly, but ofcourse. Hugs ... CayCay

Morning, CayCay and thanks for your thoughts. Here is mine on your question... Yes, outside always seems brighter and more alluring than being in the kitchen lately. The air is fresher and the animals friendlier. Hugs.

"Delightful are the first buds of spring" as opposed to the last rose of summer. I love what you have written simply because it captures everything that surrounds me. Danny

One is a renewed beginning, the other a rather sad ending. Thank you for recognizing the impetus for this Monoku, Danny.

How beautiful! Its amazing how nature shifts and how we are reminded through nature too that life is a cycle, of blooming blues and wilted petals, i love the way youv as always written such a gentle and seamless monoku! I need to write my monoku too but i must say yours is just so gorgeous! I hear through your words, songbirds singing! Best wishes! Sending you light always
