Two For February

TWO FOR FEBRUARY

i’m crossing fingers
mild february thus far
blue skies    atlas smiles

blue bird on the wing
color against winter’s nap
harbinger of spring

You are in good company with your hopes for an early spring, Daver. Lots of folks up north are angry with the Groundhog's prediction for six more weeks of winter. This is such a lovely haiku duo and I enjoyed the thought of Atlas smiling! Love and blessings, Carolyn
