1. So sweet. So peaceful. Beautiful.

2. Very contemplative…soft, most pleasant thoughts. Nice haiku indeed. Maybe an ‘s’ for ‘brings’ in 2nd haiku.

   • Many thanks 🙂 and corrected.

3. It’s a charming image I see how inspired you were.

   • I actually found the image after I wrote the poem

7. Wow, Bjorn. You really hurled me back in time to when my girlfriend and I would go to Griffith Park (in Los Angeles area) and collect tadpoles and care for them, watching them develop into little frogs or toads or whatever they were. I loved this moment of nostalgia.

8. Lovely memories Bjorn. Thank you 🙂

13. the last two lines were my favorite, I love how smell brings us back to the romance of our lives. This was beautiful.

    • Thank you… come and join Carpe Diem… a daily prompt.. could it become better, and next month will be real kigo 🙂

      • oh I do love Haiku, yes, I’ll try it out (although my talent is very very small compared to yours. )

      • Ha.. that’s the amazing thing… I have written haiku only a year or so, but daily writing makes a change.

      • then I shall try and learn. 🙂

14. Those are two lovely images and gave me a sight of a spring we could well do with in the UK. It’s wet, cold, dark and feels wintry so these haikus were a great reminder of what it should be like.

    • Here it’s a little rainy but not that cold… about average May I would say.

15. Both caught me up in their tone.
