Playful Spring Flowers

by Gypsy Blue Rose

 
 
Mornings with you are filled with love and lust. Cocooned under your arm I'm snug as a bug. Tangled in a lavender breeze that frolics with your tousled hair and amber musk scent. It entices me to caress your stubble beard and cover your face with tiny kisses, but I don't dare to wake you up.

Outside our window, an ice cream truck passes by with a crowd of children following behind. Dogs bark laud and I wish they would stop. Cats meow hungry for love and scraps.
 


playful spring flowers
 flirt and wave full of themselves —
sunshine stars the day


 
 

 




HAIBUN is a Japanese poetic form that combines prose and haiku. The prose is usually descriptive and succint, keep it simple. Evoke the senses. Write in the present tense. It uses poetic devices and the imagery evokes a sensory impression in the reader. The section of prose is then followed by a haiku that serves to deepen the meaning of the prose, either by intensifying its themes or serving as a juxtaposition to the prose�??�?�¢??s content. HAIBUN was created by Matsuo Basho in the 17th century. Resources: click here for haiku society of America definiton *** haibun today *** for wikipedia click here ==== for graceguts click here
