one maple leaf
won’t let go
even through snow
II.
butterfly wings
still flutter
even in death
III.
a stone garden
grows more than
fickle green
IV.
left-handed
a world away
clever clever girl

I’ve been thoroughly enjoying your daily haikus! There’s something back this picture that really gets my imagination going. (I’ll be sure to keep an eye out for its title, too. 🙂 )

Thanks so much S.B. 🙂 I’ve got a Salvdor Dali book in my classroom – I’m hoping to get a moment to page through it to see if this work is mentioned. I just love it!
