Wonderful! Especially now that it's spring…
spring afternoon
how many birds
in a bottle of wine
an intersection for thinking..
Beautiful!
CNS loses its command
drunkenness …
Wonderful!
watching birds eat
whiskey soaked bread
before Alzheimer's
Interesting ku with depth and mystery (yugen).
honey drops
from the rooftop
the bitterness
I feel gathering the
trembling wings of the bees

I imagined a garden party and a bee has been attracted by the narrator's wine glass. But perhaps it's only wasps that do this? In any case, I saw this is a celebratory haiku!

It's such an exciting image with so much depth and mystery to it.
Or maybe it's a hint that you should lay down booze. Just sayin'…
