Spring bloom

the way you swell:  
a fuller moon, a fragrant rose -
on my hands 



Picture credit:   Just a Picture


the way you tremble:
petalled pink, breathless wind, a dewdrop
on my lips



Posted for Poetry Jam:   Its All About Flowers
and Haiku Heights:  Ripple - It's been a while since I wrote haiku/senryu.  Smiles ~
