tiny holy wings
unbutton hearts of flowers
kisses like hot rain
****
thank you jeanine
for this metallic green bee.
on an auspicious anniversary of love he arrived
to roll in the blossoming pink petals of dawn.
you honored the bee, the day, and me with this gorgeous photograph along with
a rapturous story of love at first sight,
58 years ago.
so for you and john,
one emerald bee,
my haiku to your summer love,
and
kisses like hot rain
lasting a lifetime.

welcome back dear writers of small jewels.

with a passion.
as i will do saturday
eager for each bright haiku flower.

Good day to you all. I have posted a nice haiku about Summer Solstice on my new Wordpress blog.
On Wordpress I am now known as Basho2012 (as the name of my blog is).
Please be welcome to visit.

Your flowers were very inspirational. I would like to haiku my summer heart, for sure.

I needed to hear these words of yours this morning. They evoked wonderful memories from the past for Mrs. Spadoman and myself. The simple beauty of a relationship.
Part of my morning prayer asks the Great Spirit to remember relationships and hold a hand out to those that might need help. I realize my prayers are answered daily right here in my own home. This thought coming on strong just from your words. A great and wonderful way to start the day. With a soothing thought and amongst the best of friends, some of whom I have never met.
Just wonderful in every way.
Peace

I don't know that I've ever unbuttoned a heart before, but sometimes I need to button my lip!
