Earth awakens now
sunshine returns to the land
the days get longer
***
grass begins to green
dormant seeds show signs of life
flowers show beauty
***
birds winging back north
animal babies are born
my excitement grows

I don’t know where you are but here, we are expecting another snow storm tonight …Yuck!
This is so lovely though and I can picture our spring on its way, soon (I hope) LOL
We are having an unusually (global warming) warm winter.
I could cry this is so beautiful………
I think I will……..
*hugs*
my excitement grows as well for all things new…for the vibrancy of life…smiles…lovely
yes, yes, yes…it’s spring…i feel the excitement…and i can’t wait….nice!!
I’m in the South, and spring has definitely arrived! Today’s weather is bordering on summer.
Awww! baby goats!
I love this!
aside from Autumn, Spring is my other favorite season. Odd, considering one is dying and the other is birth. I love your reflection here and the photo is great!
I love spring. You have captured the joy of it.
It has been snowing all day here – very unusual for Vancouver Island – but weather is weird everywhere now. But we have an hour more daylight in the evening, very exciting. ARE those baby goats? I wondered if they were puppies…..or lop eared rabbits? Baby ANYTHINGS make me go ecstatic! Loved your hopeful poem.
They are goats. We have six now and two more girls to kid next week. Then I’ll have a whole bunch more in June.
My excitement grows and so does the daffodil.
Really like the natural progression illustrated in each haiku. Really like how you used the haikus to illicit that feeling. Really nice job. Thanks
I love this, you have the Haiku touch!
A lovely trio of haiku to accompany a wonderful trio of baby kids. I love it, Teresa.

I think we both felt the touch of spring on our creative faces, Teresa. Your creations bring me much joy and hope. Lovely pieces of seasonal visions.
