first signs

robin red-breasted
nests on her summer trestle
sycamore bone dance

Author notes

"This is a great form of poetry that flows from my thoughts though the picture I see is greater, I have summed it all up beautifully in such short verse."

    I love that last line...
    reminding us of all that living
    things can see when they look
    with hearts and instinct instead
    of eyes. Blue

    Nicely fresh look at a long-time favorite bird...one that threatens cliches in its wake but here tastefully avoids them. Well done.

    Good morning, thank you for your Haiku..the images you have created are wonderful as is the form, though your counts in the second line are off as there are 8. May I suggest;
     
      Red-breasted robin,
    nests on her summer trestle~
    sycamore bone dance.
     
    Best wishes...Ken IBTCool
