bloom-laden branch
stretches to reach beyond
the shadows... but no.

“Spring Dawn” (春曉) by Meng Haoran [w/ Audio]
My Spring sleep is unswayed by dawn --
Though birds are heard through screen, still drawn.
Recalling night sounds of rain and wind,
I wonder how the flowers have thinned?
Original in Chinese:
春眠不覺曉，
處處聞啼鳥。
夜來風雨聲，
花落知多少。

dense bloom clusters
of one week are a carpet
on the ground the next.

Early Bloomer [Haiku]
the early blooms
are wilted; they’ll be gone when
the tight buds open.

Thistle [Haiku]
heavy-headed thistles
sway in the cow pasture,
bees read their motion.
