Flowers in the snow


Dear friends,

Just a few minutes ago I visited Mindlovemisery's Menagerie to see if there was a nice Photo-Challenge. I was really surprised to see that there was a new Photo Challenge titled "flowers in the snow" and I just had to do this one.
A gorgeous photo of a beautiful rose in the snow ... it triggered me immediately and brought another haiku, which I once wrote, about Tulips in the snow, in mind.

I am confused
winter has departed
snow in april

snow in april
without hesitation flowers bloom
colors between white

colors between white 
such a strange ambiguity
for Mother Earth

for Mother Earth
no doubts at all today
I am confused

Tulips in the snow
I just had to share this cascading haiku on Tulips in the snow. Several years ago it was early spring here in The Netherlands and nature was already starting to come alive again. Than suddenly, somewhere around Easter, it started to snow again, it was April than ... the Tulips in my garden were covered with snow ... such a strange sight ... Mother Earth for sure was confused, no doubt about it.

Well ... I hope you did like this post. See you next time ... Namaste.

Haiku Heights April Challenge, day 4 "doubt"


A new day in the April Challenge of Haiku Heights. Again a tough prompt "doubt". I have searched for some synonyms of this .... I found confusion, hesitation and ambiguity with those words I will try to write some new haiku.

I am confused
winter has departed
snow in april

snow in april
without hesitation flowers bloom
colors between white

Tulips in the snow
colors between white
such a strange ambiguity
for Mother Earth

I am confused

See you tomorrow for another challenge for the Haiku Heights April Challenge.
