Verdant spring garden
sweetly fresh from cleansing rains
shimmers bloom's promise
Fragrant blossoms snow
coat gray slate walkway below
stand of dogwood trees
Fall's blazing array
clothes hills in vibrant color
sunset feeds the flames

Spring emerald garden
sweetly fresh from cleansing rains
shimmers bloom's promise.
Fragrant blossoms snow,
coat gray slate walkway below
stand of dogwood trees.
Fall's blazing array
clothes hills in vibrant color
sunset feeds the flames.
Thank you for entering muy ku contest. This is a very well written haiku chain, but I think I may have found a count problem with it. "Spring emerald garden" has six syllables in it and it should only have five. -

I fixed the line in question. Thanks!

the images here in your Haikus are just great and they let me see what each part is all about
