Bright sun out at last, twig shadows crossing like jackstraws,
Squirrels cussing their little hearts out over territory,
A sparrow just outside the window teasing the cats,
Tang of something in the air, got to check it out myself,
If you think I'll stay inside writing poetry at a time like this,
You don't grasp the priorities.

An excellent point.
Sounds like a beautiful spring day

I like your descriptions of the activity-it seems vibrant and full of the colors of possibility even though you mention none.

Ted:

I just couldn't let this one slip through the cracks.  I agree with the point you made but when I first read this we were experiencing quite a bit of rainfall in Pennsylvania's Susquahanna Valley.  I agree with your point, by the way.  The past few days have been beautiful in PA and, as a consequence, I haven't touched my quill during that time.    Thanks for the read.

i loved this poem!!! ")such beautiful vivid images about spring ")

i like the way u express ur love for spring through another interest--writing poetry...it makes the reader know the poet on a deeper level,something that u don't always find

BTW,i have replied to the post For Ted Reynolds...pls do read it sometime(It's getting buried somewhere.LOL)as i love to continue the discussion on Haiku.. ")

  Ted
As it should be.Nice piece of work.
Though,I would have used barking instead of
cussing,softens it up a bit.
If the rain stays away today,I'm outa here!
