Arbre

with the melt
water becomes plenty
heat rises
light spreads
Arbre shows his verdant fertility

when summer arrives
lays her shawl of wildflowers
ripened fruit fattens hides
Arbre provides a picnic
shares his plenty

the feast is over
the picnic cleared
time to throw a party
confetti falls in sunburned hues
Arbre shows his sense of irony

the frost has fallen
seeds gone to rest
soil hardens and turns fallow
still, Arbre is industrious
within tight buds, he scrolls a promise

Congratulations, @prydefoltz, on your well-deserved win. This fine meditation on the seasons maintains high-standard of your wonderfully evocative haikus :)

Thank you, Yahia. This was one of those poem that visits the poet. A gift one migh say:)

Those are the ones I trust best _/|\_

You sure make some lovely art Pryde.

Thank you, Paul. It takes a lot of editing to do these and sometimes it works and then sometimes you go to far and it becomes a mess. And you have to start over again. But it is fun:)

The seasons of time and the wheel turns as it always does... "he scrolls a promise" . Indeed!
Very nicely done word images. :)

Thank you, mamadini:)

Yes indeed, the tree throughout the year gives us so many gifts. We must appreciate these gifts. Is that a cherry tree is blossom?

Thank you, Molometer. No actually those are magnolia blossoms but they did take on the look of cherry:)

A beautiful poem Yes, within the tight buds, shifts a promise. I like this phrase Thank you.

Thank you cordero:)

lovely confluence of digital art and poetry. Beautiful

Thank you, John:)

I like the result of your digital art. Japanese influence, willingly or without your will?

I lived in Japan for a spell and so I guess in some way a Japanese sensibility will always be a part of me. I like that:)

Yes, I know and it is obvious. Of course, the influence is for all your life/

Gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous!

Thanks, Denise:) It is Tree Tuesday. Did you know. Check out @old-guy-photos if you are interested:)

Cool. April 27 is Arbor Day in the States.

You are so gifted at delivering such a strong visual with your words.

Thank you, Samantha. I open my mind and let it flow:)

I love the fact that we can all open our minds and different things flow forth from different people. Creativity in all its forms is such a beautiful thing!

It is indeed:)
