Haiku: Spring


As winter recedes
tides of mottled detritus
wash the spring ashore

As if the tide had saved spring from the wreckage of winter! Lovely.

I enjoyed thinking about how spring has a lot of cleaning up to do and how we use the phrase of spring cleaning. Nice poem

Cleansing, refreshing tides make a wonderful metaphor for Spring!

Great write!

That's beautiful! Wat a wonderful way to think of that old tired snow. Nice photo too. Today the sun is out here for a change and snow mountain is melting behind my house. I have hope.
