If angels have wings, /

than your white Iris.

“Water flower”

Water flower

White Iris petals /

Folded by the falling Spring /

Rise to catch the rain.

“Dance”

Dance

Some Iris bloom, /

while other Iris blooms die. /

Light and shadows dance.

Iris light

The evening light limns /

Translucent embrace.

“Each”

Each

Each Spring ends too soon. /

Each Iris blooms but briefly. /

Each bloom, timeless joy.

Haiku to you Thursday: “Pilgrim”

Pilgrims

Nature’s first pilgrims, /

flowing along each Iris,

raindrops find no homes.
