Carpe Diem tanka – Harbinger of spring

ice slowly recedes
geese explore the warming lake
sunshine lights the scene
winter’s debris now in view
cleansing rain to follow soon

harbinger of spring
plowing skein that briefly rests –
‘mong the icicles
underneath the melting snow
winter’s hidden secrets show

  1. Lovely tankas, brother; bumped into you over at Tess Kincaid’s THE MAG, where I contribute sometimes. Glad today is the last day of hiatus for dVerse; been missing the love.
