Wendy Watson Poet Haiku

Yielding To Nature

acorns doff their caps
and bow to winter's approach ~
spring will see them rise

John Watt November 9, 2020 at 10:07 PM Enjoyed reading another thoughtful musing on the lowly acorn preparing to become a mighty oak. Your love and grasp of nature are so evident in your writings, Wendy ~ John Wendy Watson November 10, 2020 at 9:00 AM Thank you,John although the dispersal of acorns from our garden oak was rather too profuse for our liking this year! I do find acorns so aesthetically pleasing though and have made use of several in craft activities.

Rico Leffanta November 9, 2020 at 10:53 AM Doesn't make sense doffing your cap to receive winter's chill, does it? Yet that is what they do! Well said! Aloha! Rico Wendy Watson November 10, 2020 at 8:58 AM Thank you, Rico. I find them so cute and have recently painted quite a few with faces to accompany log slices with my ''Acorn's last secret' poem written on.
