Haiku Moment: uncurl

summer arrives! what

lies beneath forest litter?

time to stretch, uncurl

nod heads, reach for sun;

fling out your arms and grow tall

shade shelter below

Haiku Moment: green boas

green feathers, boas,

cushion path, moor silver threads

hide eight-eyed hunters

I’m going to to miss these lovelies, but not the walking into and through spider webs. But it was worth every minute spent trying to remove clinging strands to see such verdant green life.

Happy Hump Day Haiku Challenge: forest lollipop

lollipop curl road

dancing, growing, reaching high;

what flavor opens?

Don’t these fern swirls look exactly like fuzzy lollipops? Of course, I don’t want to lick treats containing fuzz, but my imagination considers what interesting tastes live in forest lollipops.

Happy Haiku Day!
