Wow, this is a beautiful senryu, I love it, it is now one of my favourites that I have ever read and I love how you compare Spring to love, I have always thought of spring as the perfect season for love as well! I look forward to more haikus and senryus by you ![]() Take care, Melissa Honeybee The beauty of poetry gives me wings to fly |
