early spring
on the hospital table
paper flowers

This is an intriguing haiku that brings thoughts and feelings of our own individual experiences of birth, death and everything in_between. The imagery is handled with a light touch and the obvious seasonal connection helps to bring a natural setting against what could be the stark, cold white setting of a hospital. We can feel uplifted by the splashes color and the promise of renewal and hope.
