first day of spring

Three haiku written today. This year, the first day of spring coincides with Passion Sunday, aka Palm Sunday, in Catholic and Protestant churches. Other than being written on the same day, the three haiku have no relation to one another, although it occurs to me that #2 and #3 might be read as the second and third acts of a little drama, of which act one can be found at the post "looking for spring."

Passion Sunday

palm branches

waving hello

growing fond of it

last mound of snow

shrinking into spring

3

first day of spring

chill rain

snow almost gone
