    Crocuses up now

    Pretty little purple heads

    But some are yellow

    Mysterious and hopeful

    Hope for nice surprise!

    Don't forget the cones!

    Orange for road construction.

    Popped up, now it's Spring.

    Breast cancer treatment,

    the gift that keeps on giving.

    Looking out the back

    When treatment is done for now

    Means change your focus

    ~~~~~~~~~~

    Spring is in the air

    Sunshine is melting the snow

    Mud is on the floor

    ~~~~~~~~~~~

    Little bunnies hop

    Birds begin to build their nests

    Spring is really here

    My thoughts on this election (I voted early, in person absentee, today!)


    Candidates will run

    Calls continue to come in

    Vote or don't complain!

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    Not much to chose from

    One as bad as the other

    But one is better

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    Vote. Vote. Vote. Vote. Vote.

    You decide who is better

    Then you vote that way.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    Democracy works

    If we vote our consciences

    Don't need to agree

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    Debates are good

    Advertisements too

    But, ENOUGH phone calls!!!!!

    The circus left town.

    Moved on to greener pastures.

    Watch out for cow pies!

    Happy

    Spring sprang then withdrew.

    Proved the rule, don't plant here 'til

    after Mothers' Day. ♥

    Rain showers today

    Grey skies overhead all day

    Parched desert blooms

    A rainy day is

    a good day for reflection.

    rainbows and puddles

    A robin bathing

    small puddle in my back yard

    big enough for her

    Torrents of water

    Rush over Niagara Falls

    Annie Taylor too!


    *Annie Taylor was the first person to go over Niagra Falls in a barrel. She survived!

    Hi Magiclight! I was listening to NPR they had a story about her just last week

    Dandelions sprout

    Yellow masses all over

    Makes for great jelly!

    Moon come to my house!

    Yellow flowers dot the lawn.

    Dandelion wine? ♥

  • moonflwr912
    moonflwr912 Member Posts: 5,938

    My Dad made the wine

    Dandelions, yeast, lemon

    And lots of sugar

    _________

    Takes way too much time

    Watching the wine fermenting

    And then aging it

    ________

    Jelly is instant,

    Albeit a delicious,

    Gratification

    Moonflower: Not a haiku this morning, just want to say that I am impressed that you make dandelion jelly. Dandelion wine also? Dandelions are a rare species here in my part of AZ, so I stick to my Chardonnay!!

    A peaceful day in

    Haiku for Max:

    tail wagging high

    long red tongue slurping

    a vivid memory

    sorry, magiclight. Sounds like a good memory though.


    Kidney stones have settled down, but not out. So another flareup is probably on its way soon. Sigh

    Warm and humid night

    brings the year's first fireflies.

    Sultry summer dance. ♥
