haiku for relentless spring
the war goes on and
spring arrives the north of Earth
over all that’s gone
there’s green without doubt
spring has subsumed winter time
spring world for a while
USA times change
seasons over politics
is only green hope
pink and white the gift
Japan gave us cherry trees
Tidal Basin spring
climate change is heat
eighty degrees moderate
missing cool spring

[well, I wrote some haiku for spring; I should have selected one poem to post, but the theme of now it’s relentless spring rather got to me; as such, altogether there’s a good deal of repetition; yet I hope you find these appreciable and hopefully enjoyable]
[giving USA three syllables by the way we pronounce it]
[it probably doesn’t matter, but I mean the verb of “moderate”]

I should say something to this

for Poetry Month (that this has been)

intimate grandeur
how nature gives then displays
graces for senses

I’m thankful for Literary Revelations Publishing House (https://literaryrevelations.com/) that will be publishing haiku of mine with those of others, a book on the theme of soulmates
I am in pain evidently from compressed nerves, better from medication, though still hurting
I have an operation set for 6 May; the device implanted and connected to my heart will be replaced, at least the electric part will be, as it’s time
I’m still breathing bad in my place that is infested and in the long and complex process finding and affording somewhere else to live
and how are you today?
the haiku above to me seems a little rough but says what I mean to say; what’s more important is what the verse might say to you
thanks
all of you
so much
