Janice Ewing: A Few Haiku
copyright 2010
A tall amber vase
Surrounds shy purple tulips
Not ready to bloom
Daffodils arrive
In yellow party dresses
With spring green stockings
Azaleas await
The parting of the curtain
Pink peeking through green
Palette at her side
Nature sits at her easel
Chooses a fresh brush
Surrounds shy purple tulips
Not ready to bloom
Daffodils arrive
In yellow party dresses
With spring green stockings
Azaleas await
The parting of the curtain
Pink peeking through green
Palette at her side
Nature sits at her easel
Chooses a fresh brush
