the sky open

Nice. Thank you.
Lovely imagery; perfect for the season. Thank you!
Really like "a wedge of geese". Great image.
A lovely haiku. I always look forward to the marsh marigolds.
I'm also a fan of that great description 'a wedge of geese' :)

Magnificent imagery, Ernest
Archimedes was said to have discovered the principle of the lever, and to have commented, "Give me a lever long enough, and a fulcrum (or wedge) on which to place it, and I shall move the world"
Your "wedge of geese" doing just that! Prying open the sky, turning the world itself to start a new season.
Brilliant poem.
