At the beginning of autumn and winter, I wrote haikus about scenes in the park across the street from our apartment building. As spring is budding out all over Moscow, it's time to add to the collection. This season seems so fleeting, slow in coming but speedy in its growth. Before it seques into summer, I want to savor the freshness of each spring morning as I walk among the new leaves. Please join me, once again.
seat of solitude
extends an invitation
in haste I decline
hidden among branches
gifts left for melodic songsters
by adoring fans
mirror of water
multiply morning's glory
in quiet grandeur
symphony of life
cresendos into being
joyful voices all
scent of Russian spring
fragile as newborn petals
lives in lilac's heart
