Tulips

---------remember haiku is for nature only ~  nature also has heart

                                 tulips are tulips
                          then come yellow daffodils
                            they dance in the wind

                  in the early spring~ they spring to life
                       tulips and daffodils ~ colors rife
                  in petals' splendor ~ their love unfurls
                    then one fades ~ other just follows

Nice I see why you marked it as other since it is two forms. Well done.

Jay, your intense and insightful poem with vivid imagery reminds us that haiku is solely meant for nature. It also highlights the fact that nature, too, possesses a heart. Good luck with the contest.
