When we bought the house, the yard was covered in snow, but you could see where a leafless rosebush was making promises about the future, and the snow was revealing ridges where the low brick wall enclosed the flowerbeds. I resolved to wait the seasons out, push my thoughts forward to the beginning of spring.

… and as Autumn now approaches, 'tis warming to dream ahead to Spring.
Your nifty haibun caused me to dream of this:
vines search
reaches for the morrow
warm wine.

Lovely. I particularly like the word 'curious' – what a great way to describe pea tendrils! :)

An elegant haibun, Charles, topped off with a delicious haiku! I also loved the choice of "curious" – it evokes for me all those David Attenborough documentaries and time lapse photography.
I look forward to enjoying more of your verses in the future.

Tendrils come from the area of romanticism! Nice associations arise in mind!
