Sakura Wish

April laughed in snow.

I dropped a sakura wish,

Dreaming of pink gems. 

*Bonus April haiku

Between snow and spring

Last year's shadow clings softly

Like a lost leaf ghost. 

I Waited Too Long

I waited too long:

My black mirror missed winter!

But snow left glass worlds.

*My haiku for March 2026:

A Postcard

February ink,

Like a postcard from heaven

Cursive in petals.

*My mother passed in early February, many years ago. She loved African Violets and they always remind me of her.
