J.R. MacLean is on a distinguished road
fuzzy gray softness
plump nuggets against my cheek
purring songs of spring

mmm.

i don't believe i have commented on one of your works before. (a little intimidated, truth be told) i like this one very much. i'm not sure what it is exactly. maybe the reminder of a past warm, fall sunset.

thank you for sharing.

I like the alliteration. Haiku can be hard to work sonic devices into.

I especially like how "threadbare branches" feels in ones mouth.

Well thank you Frank! Pussy willows are a seasonal favourite which we could find wild where I grew up. Fascinating creatures that still make me recall the softness against my cheek as they brushed me when I carried them.

J.R.! purring songs of spring! how delicious!
