You make them sound very eager (even desperate). But they would be for light as we are.
The alliteration of the first line intrigued me; however, you did drive me to the dictionary. Nice haiku.
Thanks for joining us this week.
I love how this particular flowering tree reaches for the sky! Nice haiku.
Post pluvia - what a wonderful phrase!
..a pluvial experience of joy..
a beautiful capture of how spring makes us feel...just like those blossoms! (i knew my latin would come in handy someday!)
A poem as lovely as those blossoms. Very nice.
I love cherry blossoms and the phot is just lovely, so graceful. I confess, I too had to consult the dictionary... and just when I thought my brain was full!
Thank you for this beautiful haiku. Yes, I had to go to the dictionary myself, but I shouldn't have needed too: I took more than enough Latin and know what sakura blossoms are. You are inspiring.
A lovely image! Beautifully done.

very nice!
This flows so beautifully. A treasure in words and image.
