Rises behind the pine row
Mist shrouds dewed, still grass

This week, write the haikai poem of your choice (haiku, senryu, haibun, tanka, haiga, renga, etc.) that alludes to twittering (saezuri).
A lovely spring-like poem.

I feed the birds all year… less though in better weather, when more natural stuffs are available.
