Late winter —
a crocus breaks through
the melting snow.
About Masago
- Masago
- Edmonton, Alberta, Canada
- From "The Haiku Anthology" I became interested in Haiku and I have since written numerous haiku, senyru, and tanka. "Masago", my haiku pen-name, means "grain(s) of sand" in Japanese. I have recently started learning Esperanto and Japanese. A few years ago I developed a new eastern verse form which we now call 'Renhai'.

Link with 939: Breaking through snow.
[The crocus, a harbinger of the Winter's demise, also announces Spring's coming.]
Crocuses are such a natural inspiration for haiku! You've done a good job on this one.
and so welcome... so fragile looking yet so hardy
love this
it's happening here right now
(though we have had very little snow at low levels)
lovely one

Ours are much more fortunate, no snow, they come out just like that...!:)
A tough little guy, or gal. Can't hold back that which is meant to be.
beautiful observation!
the crocuses here don't have to struggle through snow this year...
Aurora: Thank you!
Pamela: Yes, although they aren't as common around here (that I know of). :-)
Floots: I'd love to be there to see that (like cherry blossoms in Nihon).
John: Thanks.
Borut: They're just sissy's this year.
Pat: Ah, so true.
Polona: As Borut mentioned...they got off easy this year. :-)
