Come join me for a three-line haiku,
illustrated with three photos near our library,
only three more days to the end of March.
New blossoms beckon
curbside pause invigorates
soul revels in pink.
-Ramona Behnke
When I picked up my husband at the Park & Ride on Monday, I glanced at my phone to stop my podcast. It was, honest to goodness, 3:33! He never comes home this early, but he had at home tasks calling today and I received another fun connection for my post.
This
is my eleventh year of participating in the March Slice of Life Story
Challenge. This year I'll be mining my memories (some of the time) for stories to share. Some of the time I'll be writing numerical slices. I didn't know this would happen.
What a beautiful poem to capture a a beautiful image. The cherry blossoms are in full bloom where I live, too! We've been walking our dog to Cherry Blossom Road, as we call it in the spring, because both sides of the street are lined with trees blossoming right now and it's so beautiful.

ReplyDeleteNot sure how I got an extra "year" in there. I guess it's the thought that counts?
