The Soft Bubbling Brook

the soft bubbling brook
within risshun, sweet, sweet sound…
path’s aroma’s great

Mr. Webster had to teach me a quick lesson on your vocab for this haiku..so the Japanese tossed the Lunar calendar and went Gregorian, huh? I like the idea of revamping to accomodate the Japanese farmers..now my mind takes me to walking along a cool bubbly brook during the first days of Spring..and yes, how important the aroma is to the reawakened stagnant winter soul? Now your haiku means something to me! Love it! Off to your next haiku......
