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

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.
