neon lemon lights
flicker and sway in March wind —
daffodils mantra
neon lemon lights
choreograph sun’s embrace
forever today
flicker and sway in March wind
with tinkling windchimes’
sweet arrhythmia
daffodils mantra
hums spring’s bright opening act —
winter’s curtain rise
Today’s offering is in troiku form.

| Date | Kigo |
| 3/13 | daffodil / Ides of March |
| 3/20 | forsythia / Equinox I |
| 3/27 | Palm/ Worm Moon |
| 4/3 | Lily / Easter |
Select the date and kigo you like, then write the haikai poem of your choice (haiku, senryu, haibun, tanka, haiga, renga, etc) that alludes to your selection.
Love it! Fabulous last stanza!

We’ve been waiting for that frosty curtain to disappear!!
Had some last week, though it didn’t last too long into the morning 🙂

Beautiful, lyrical, full of promise. I’ve never heard of troiku, either. So also… enlightening! 🙂
