Chicago Spring Haiku
1.
Overnight scene change--
Tulips. Tulips everywhere.
Crayon-bright bulbs flash.
2.
snow, winter's clean sheets
someone yanked off the covers
green grass grins, awakening
3.
on Wacker, LaSalle:
striped cafe awnings shudder,
shaking off frost's dust
4.
two yellow kayaks--
banana peels skimming by
Riverwalkers watch
5.
Pale Shoulder Seeks Sun
for no-strings spring freckling
Will u be my UV?
6.
gnat swarms at the lake
gulped happily by sparrows
by me, not so much
7.
branches in blossom
flirt with every passerby--
You know you want a photo.
