Hello Gypsy Blue, I enjoyed reading your poem, and I enjoy reading (and writing) about the color blue. It's such an interesting color - not necessarily sad. Your haiku is filled with vivid imagery. I can see it; I can hear it.

I especially liked:

blue bells move
with the wind in Apple Hill --

(Vivid, yet velvety soft, imagery -- very lovely.)

Fantastic artwork choice. Great haiku format. A pleasure to read. Keep the blue waters flowing. LateBloomer

A field of bluebells is lovely. One can imagine them blowing in the wind. Mentioning April adds to the picture, because we think of all the flowers blooming at that time. They would look all fresh, blowing in the breeze. Lovely presentation. judi

    When I was little I loved picking wildflowers. I would be gone for hours collecting them. When my parents moved to the country I was so happy. Thank you for reading, JOan :)

This is quite a startling colour combination, Gypsy, but I like the green background. More importantly, your haiku is informative as well as well formed and with an imagistic satori. Giddy

Flowers sway with the wind and gain more energy from the rain. They will create an impressive sight, and painters have a moment to capture it.

As a lover of wild flowers, or weeds as many may call them, I am enjoying these haiku poems and picture combinations that welcome the early spring. Great job. :-)

Lady Blue,
Wonderful image of all those bluebells. I like the photo, I think. LOL.
Minor nit in your notes.
Here: Bluebells is a wild flower and bulbousperennial plant,
Edited: Bluebells are wildflowers and are Bulbous perennial plants.

Enjoyed reading you.

Michael

Hello Gypsy,

I've come to understand that it takes fine honing and crafting to create a 'real' classy haiku. This one is gorgeous. I'm always impressed at how the careful placing of a few well chosen words can create such an impact.

Have a great Easter weekend.
