A beautiful ku! The creativeness (Zoko) of the haiku explores the socio-psychological aspects of the man in modern society. Some of my poems with reference to 'wildflowers' are cited below:

the tenderness of
your thought

I collect
the wild flowers
everything
that you advise
blooms in my garden of life

A beautiful verse, Claudette.
Friendship, like the flowers we stumble across when we aren't really looking, such a delightful encounter.

wildflowers
the friends we make
by chance

Ah, yes, it's amazing who or what can become an impromptu friend without social pressures. Enjoyed this thought provoking haiku.

A lifelong friendship can bloom from a chance meeting in an unusual situation, just like a wildflower that can thrive anywhere.
