A chill in the romance
Lonely in the night
Mulberry tea and sweets

Veiled sunshine shakes out her
spangled gown
over miles of silver billows.

We run, crabs loose from a spilt
green bucket,
back to the best of childhood.

On a chilly day
Even a bee knows
When it is time to cuddle

🎨 Sara Burrier
The artwork featured in the post is a popular piece titled "The Sleeping Bee" (or often referred to as "Bumblebee Naps Inside Flowers") by nature artist Sara Burrier.

Key Visual Details • Fluffy texture: The bee's back and rear are soft and round. • Tiny legs: The legs are visible gripping the yellow petals. • Art style: a delicate watercolor painting

First storm
A frog snuggles
Beneath a lily pad
Friends in low places

#DailyHaikuPrompt #Haiku #Poetry
#FirstStorm #Frog #17syllables

🎨 Leonid Afremov
The Lily That Pond Became Rain is an expressive oil painting created in the signature impasto palette-knife style of the late impressionist artist Leonid Afremov, featuring a vibrant marsh scene where a frog rests among colorful lily pads and a blooming pink water lily under a dynamic, textured downpour. Palette Knife Technique: Rather than using traditional fine-line brushstrokes, the piece is constructed from heavy, tactile applications of oil paint that give the water, frog, and foliage a dimensional, light-catching quality. Vibrant Chromatic Reflection: The swirling rain and pond elements utilize contrasting, luminous color transitions rather than flat shading, giving the marshland an atmospheric, dreamlike energy. Availability: Offered as hand-painted original canvas works or high-quality reproductions through the Official Leonid Afremov Gallery and fine art platforms like Fine Art America.

I come from a long line of haikuists. (Or should that be three short lines?)

That I thought at first that this picture was of some science fiction alien or mutant says a lot about both my geek and ace natures. 😁
