Haiku Blossoms


One Single Impression says: Thanks to Lissa at Just Writing Words for this week's prompt of faces. Thanks also for sharing your poem and for providing the artwork.





yolks in the middle
white pull-away leaves forecast
~~~loves me, loves me not



hillside dance
bear grass and lupine
face to face

I love the Daisy haiku.

I confess - I always cheated to make sure I always got 'he loves me', but he didn't love me enough.

Nicely done, Sue!

These are delightful, Sue. I particularly enjoyed the second. I can just see it!

I just truly like all of these. That last one I can really relate to! thanks for the tiny portraits.

I wonder what dance the Bear Grass does with the lupine-- something slow or something quick. Very nice haikus.

I like both of your poems - very creative! Lovely images to come away with - I have seen the grasses and flowers dancing, too.

hello... that a daisy could bring us such joy...i can imagine each pluck the petal sez.. ouch, ouch, ouch.. or.. maybe, maybe not...

I like the poem about the daisy. It has its own little yolk colored face, doesn't it! And you've pulled of its bonnet! Did you discover who loves you? I can see the lupine and bear grass waltzing too! May I join in?

The second is my favorite, I think, but I do like the idea of the daisy's face being a yolk. Your haiku are lovely delicate blossoms.

They are both good, but that second one really hits me.

Both are wonderful! My favorite is the daisy, my mothers favorite flower. I love how you used the prompt here. Very creative!
