Spring Easter Haiku

the chickadee tweets I eat my breakfast without an egg wings flutter upon melting icicles first glimpse of Spring Grandma's garden a missing rose lay on her stone Incense wafts amongst the silent crowd a sneeze out loud longing another Spring blooms without you Happy Easter to you and yours with love -Charma

You're the one of the best haiku poets on the site, Charmaine. You always capture wonderful moments, sticking to simple language (which I personally think is key!), with "a-has" at the end. Some of these very funny, others sad, and others can kinda be taken both ways ... a sneeze out loud. It made me think of those Asian funerals that burn incense to honor the dead, and then someone sneezing on accident ... very awkward!
