Janey ...

First blackthorn, pale as a daisy,

shy in the hedgerow

Helen...

Slanting sunlight through trees lights up water like a mirror.

Janey...

Drizzle, early morning,

a goldfinch in the hedgerow my reward

Helen...

Blue patches of sky, birds sing, the sun breaks through.

Janey

Endless cobalt sky forgets the winter. An icy wind remembers...

Helen 

Snowdrops getting fatter and brighter under these cold February skies.

Janey...

A year rolls around,

sharp shoots strike green from the earth

these threshold moments

Helen...

Snowdrop miracle

Closes this year of Haiku

With promise of Spring
