Good Morning Haiku
1. Light streams on bayou
wake up trees to stand tall for
perfect reflection.2. Frothy milk swirling
atop French roast coffee drips,
sweet cafe au lait.3. Breezy walk with Anne-
dogs sniff, pull, and interrupt
our conversation.4. Breakfast at Victor’s,
savor sweet potato pancakes,
crispy bacon.5. A day like today,
watering is not a chore;
Praise gentle morning.–Margaret Simon

Ahhhhh… so refreshing. What lovely moments of a “gentle morning” you have welcomed me to share via your words and picture, Margaret.
Such a lovely morning! Every moment worth savoring.
Sounds wonderful. I can picture you there.
Such a bright beginning to your day!
Beautiful beginning to the day.
Oh my – what a wonderful setting and my favorite line is the last – Praise gentle morning. May all your days be like this.
I love the spring vibrations, Margaret. Thanks for sending them on to us. Winter has me down and under with yet another cold. I think it’s the change in weather patterns.
I’m sorry Carol. I’ve had a cough that won’t go away.
lovely the light
sweet cafe au lait
special the friendship
and the gentle morning.
Beautifully written
and appreciated
by this reader
in the cold.
Absolute loved your last line – “Praise gentle morning.” You did that so well in your good morning haikus.
