Carpe Diem Little Creatures #19 violets
dandelions,violets
bouquet wilting in tiny hands
springs first precious gifts
This poem is an old one from 2001. Thought I tried to edit it to free style form but not very successful, or does it just become a different poem all together?

Hmmm…. while the second poem has a better “form” … follows the “rules” better .. it IS a totally different poem. Both are good – but there’s more joy in the first one. The second seems to have a tinge of sadness perhaps???
Either way, it makes a gorgeous haiga 🙂

I agree with Jen … the first is sprightly and happy .. I see the child with his/her springtime offering .. the second has a more melancholy feel about it .. and I love the beautiful bright haiga you created!
