hawthorn blooms

under a sky

of skylarksong

suddenly

the air full of house martins -

the scent of hawthorn

  2. The hawthorn here has already reached the snowing stage - there are more petals on the floor than the tree...!

    Lovely haiku and photo. Haikus seem particularly suited to spring, don't they? I just saw my first barn swallow of the summer, brought to mind again by your house martins.

  11. My Hawthorn trees had more blossom on them this year. I know my Dad hears Skylarks and sees Housemartins where he is in the country, at the foot of the South Downs. x
