Daffodils emerge
Lifting buttery faces
Towards celestial twin

Yellow flower spears
Bravely ignoring weather
Rend the foggy air

  1. Dear Janet,

    Nice Haikus. I like that you write these.

    Aloha,

    Doug

    • Thanks, Doug. I think they’re the Friday Fictioneers of poetry in that you have to be succinct and chose your words carefully.

      Fabulous Friday to you,

  2. Dear Janet,
    Love the haikus. Love the flowers. Daffodils and lilacs…nothing says spring better than these.
    Shalom,
    Rochelle

    • The lilacs are in the bud stage right now. We have three bushes–one with white, one lilac and one purple (Deep Purple?). They’re beautiful. Hopefully today’s pouring rain won’t crush the daffodils.

    Buttery faces – renting the air. How perfectly splendid. Virginia

    Really beautiful. I tried haiku’s this week too. They’re an excellent way of focussing the mind!

    How interesting to see daffodils at this stage, almost born!
    I’ve never noticed them this way before.

    I love when the daffodils come up in our yard! We used to love to look at all the flowers when the front yard was in bloom!
