Breath


spring seed arrival
a summer's discontent grows
into fall's exhale

The season of spring, one of rebirth and renewal, my favourite time of year. I am holding my breath that the unrest in the world won’t spoil the summer. The fall always signifies decay and dying to me. Wouldn’t it be lovely if we could grow peace from a packet of seeds. Thought provoking and visual dear J.

A wonderful Haiku that encompasses the full range of requirements the syllables in each line, the nature aspect, and the meaning of the movement. Lovely

The cycle of life condensed into seventeen syllables. I never cared much for Haiku, but I liked this one.

What a wonderful Haiku here Jacob erin-cilbert. I like the use of seasons here it's very deep. It makes me thing of fall and how all the plants are getting ready for winter. Even though winter isn't here it's almost like it's indicated with "falls exhales." What a wonderful poem. Thanks again
