Very good, Ed. "trickles" is an excellent choice and beautifully placed.

Wonderful image, Ed! I agree with Bill about "trickles" - perfect word choice. I like the implied time lapse with the "mound of snow" trickling.
spring cleaning
the slow gutter murmur
of yesterday's rain
spring cleaning
the last mound of snow trickles
down the driveway
a sleepy murmur
from her carseat
spring warmth
seeping, slowly in the bone
flowers waking
yeah! i like this haiku (especially "trickles")
Very nice, Ed. Very well done.

A BRIGHT GREEN GRASS
AROUND THIS GLISTENING
IN THE SUNSHINE
SNOW DRIFT RESTING
Nice one, Ed...and how well I know that feeling of watching the last mound of snow trickle away.

Were you looking up my driveway when you wrote this? It's so "right on". Spring in Northern Wisconsin.
Very well done dear Ed!

Ed, I really enjoyed your Spring images! I agree with Kat, but from St. Paul, MN.
