Dear friends of MLMM,
Finally it is spring here at The Netherlands. As I look around me I see all kinds of blossoms bloom for example cherry blossoms, but I also see Magnolia bloom in almost every garden in my neighborhood. This gives me really a spring feeling and I love it.
This week’s theme for Heeding Haiku With is Magnolia (Kobushi), it is a kigo (seasonword) for spring. Maybe you know that haiku uses kigo to point to the season in which the haiku was written.
MAGNOLIA
Here I have an example written by myself last year (2016):
blossoming Magnolia
one of its branches scattered –

And another one I wrote back in 2014:
an empty vase –
without hesitation
I cut the Magnolia

Well … I think I have given you enough inspiration for this week’s episode of Heeding Haiku With …
Have fun!
