Treasure Poem by M.J. Lemon
Treasure
Look, emerald shoots
These are the treasures of Spring
This land will be paved.
Sometimes one person's progress destroys other people's treasure!
With spring, green shoots will appear! Though they are the treasures of nature, when the land is paved with brick or stones, they will be destroyed! I think you are concerned about it..........or are you happy that the land will be covered in green shoots with the arrival if spring? A beautiful haiku!
Thank you so much, Valsa. And yes, I'm happy the green shoots will reappear.
Where there are flowers I see a pavement to arrive so close to the colors and aroma. A beautiful poem!
and the lawnmowers shall cause neighbors to slam their windows shut! bri :)
Awesome! Your comment is just one syllable short of being a human haiku....that would make it a perfect companion piece....
Beautiful 'emerald shoots' treasured or discrded, paved in crops or stone? nice lines

I like this. The strong and contemporary message in three simple lines has a grace that would be clouded by too many words. (ie, this review) . It inspires me to explore the Haiku.
