Pensieve's Poetic License ~ April Challenge



SPRING UNCERTAINTY





Reaching for skyline

The snow on the foothills

Retreats


Perching ‘Neath rain cover

The finch on the feeder

Huddles


Evading the frost bite

The peach by the green house

Blossoms


Disregarding the forecast

I dress for the weather

Challenges


Refracting bowed promise

The sun, through the rain shower

Prevails

Nice -

That is a different form of Haiku than I used.

Hi Pamela, lovely little poem.

The dust storm was terrible,
I needed your feather duster inside, oh the dust was bad you could even feel it hitting you like fine rain..
Kila said…
Aww, now that makes it sound beautiful!

I like it!

I used a different form of haiku as well. I like the meter on yours.

Beautiful, as always. Love this form...is it Pamiku?

Ha! Pamiku--gotta love that Swampmeister!

Weather on your brain? Me thinks you might be experiencing slightly lower and less Spring-like temperatures than moi. Just think--when I'm sweltering in 100 degree temps and 300% humidity--you'll be shootin' the breeze!

Love these selections, Pamela. They make perfect sense to me!

I usually do Haiku Friday each week but decided I could do 'double' duty since one was about Spring ;--)
Joyful Burst of Color and
Of Oddities and Change
Hugs and blessings,

I loved it all, but particularly loved the snow reaching for the skyline. Like it had a purpose for it's retreat. It's not just abandoning us, it's going somewhere ethereal.

Very nice!

Nice job , Pamela. I think that we may be having the same kind of spring. Today, I am waiting for the sun to prevail.
