Good to see you bud

Wonderful haiku, Atticus! I could picture this...:)

Lovely haiku. Your icon is lovely, too.

Quite smart, Atticus! Especially the double entendre of sleeping on Japanese limbs.
Walking around my city, the trees seemed to have bloomed overnight -- something of a miracle. Happy spring, coming this Thursday! Hope you're well, Atticus.

Andrea liked the word play on sleeping on limbs, well, I liked the double meaning of the title, with bud also standing in for ¨buddy¨or good friend.
This poem startles with its power of dormant description come to life yet remaining still life, with only a gerund to activate its complex.
Very well done haiku, Atticus.

Its a sweet work atticus - helping us see, really see what is important. Winter and all it means both in reality and symbolically is trumped by the single bud - hope/possibility. We wait for such a long time for it - when it comes - we are surprized but it was coming all the time.

this is a precious delight!

Thanks Atticus, you just made me smile.

Thank you Cheryl, I'm so glad you all enjoyed this little poem written in a genre in which you are quite accomplished.

Thank you Audrey. My icon thanks you also.

Andrea, I especially wish the blessings of spring for you. It seems like it should be your time to bloom. Thank you it is nice to see your comment on one of my small poems.

John, Thank you so much. Your generous comment pleases me. You always seem to see straight to the heart of any poem large or small. I'm glad my title play did not come off as trite. Your comments are most appreciated and I hope that we will not be strangers to each others pages. I have learned so much reading work and your comments around Gather.

Nathan, In a way this poem grew right out our discussion earlier. Thank you for seeing that in my mood.

Anne and Liz, I appreciate your kindness. Thank you.

Karl, I'm glad you enjoyed it. Happy spring to you all.

Atticus I liked this so much I went out and took a photo to use as background. I posted it to Haiku for Two, and hope you like the result.

Lovely. And the subject matter is perfect for haiku.

really great terse haiku, Atticus. I can picture it!

Wonderful
