left by a spaghetti strap

    of sunflowers
    the butterfly pauses

    whispering, cold black rain
    white goose down comforter
    dreamer - my name

    ===================

    First winter rain-
    I plod on,
    Traveler, my name

    taste of salt--
    where once covered swimsuit strap

    Nice touch of 'haiku humour' and I enjoyed the sensations in this.
