"april"

flakes falling through fog
pocket gophers stretching tall
vast white universe

whistles over snow
a question from the prairie
who woke me early?

Very well done.
I enjoyed this haiku. We don't have snow here in Puerto Rico....so it's all summer to me

I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

I'm in love with my shadow
I admire it daily

What a rude awakening!

We are getting snow here again today. The prairie dogs and you have my sympathy.

Thanks for the sympathy, Marilyn.

Although I love the changing seasons dearly, days like this make me want to go back to Arizona. lol

I can appreciate the image, but it has been a long time since I've seen it.
Good one.

coyote: There are lots of critters around here wondering the same thing I'm sure. Snowed two days early this last week and again last night. Good haiku!
