Well ... finally the Haiku Heights April Challenge has started. A new challenge to write haiku every day on a given prompt. Today's prompt is EAGER . English is, as you maybe know (and sometimes can read), not my maiden language. So I am not so familiar with Eager. I have search the internet and found a few synonyms of eager e.g. ambitious, desirous and longing. Those are words I can understand so I will try to write a few haiku with those words and maybe some other synonyms.
Well ... let's do this!!!
yearning for spring
the frost makes nature suffer -
snowdrops are blooming
snowdrops are blooming
they are longing for spring
after the dark winter
after the dark winter
restless cherry blossom buds
starting to bloom
starting to bloom
the old apple tree garden
yearning for spring
See you tomorrow, for another day in the Haiku Heights April challenge.

Hey!...Very good to see you again :)
Lovely set of haiku :) I loved the expression ....old apple tree garden yearning for spring :)
yearning was very well reflected !!!
"the old apple tree garden" is so evocative to me, and a nice coda to this super haiku set.
I'm just as eager as all those blossoms of which you write so seductively!
That's a great set of Haiku's forming a poetry... :)
nice one... :)
This is wonderful! A beautiful cascading haiku!
Nicely said. I think we all yearn for Spring.
Lovely haiku. I especially like "snowflakes are blooming"
I am so sorry, it is - "snowdrops are blooming"
Special haiku.
yearning and eager
four eager senryu
Congratulations - I know how difficult it is to write poetry in a language which is not your mother tongue. You have certainly
created something beautiful with this chain of real haiku. And you have the meaning of 'eager' spot on.
