Behind again. A haiku from yesterday.

monkey flower blooms
beside the unfurling fern

Love the surprise at the end. Monkey flower already had me smiling; good reinforcement of a good feeling.

Haiku to you!

Can you hear me laugh?
If I wasn’t behind I
wouldn’t be at all!

“Monkey flower” makes me smile. Now I want to google the image. 🙂 Thank you for this!

  Isn’t it the funniest name for a flower? I have lots of them in my yard. They’re one of our native plants.
