Tiny spring peepers
Chirp love songs from the Cypress
Bull frog bass back beat
Mayapple leaves spread
Catching cool raindrops falling
Umbrellas for toads
Ethereal mist
Blankets buds, warbler takes wing

I love the last one "ethereal mist" wonderfully composed. Thanks for sharing these tine little 'mouse dropping' :-)
These are lovely haiku... hard to pick a favorite but I really like the image I get from the second one. Thanks for taking part.
Do toads really need umbrellas? :-)
How lovely! These seem to usher in Spring in your part of the world. I love the Bullfrog's back beat!
I love the last one. "Ethereal mist" --> WOW.
Nature's music is like balm for the soul! Love the idea of "ethereal mists"!
Wow!...Awesome description of spring! Beautiful :)

I haven't seen (or eaten!) mayapples for years...and I never thought of them as umbrellas for toads. Delightful image!

Thanks for not using Blogger's word verification. It is really annoying.
Loving this and the anticipation of a beautiful spring when natures awakens from her slumber. Nicely done!! Not familiar with mayapples, and love "umbrellas for toads"
Day 19
Mmm... I can feel the cool dampness. Love it!
I love your haiku - especially the Bear Haiku to the right. Hee hee!Great wisdom in the bubble comment :)
these are true Haiku
I love the first one! Nature can be a symphony.
Mayapple leaves spread

Umbrellas for toads
Love this!
These three haiku are well-counted and offer vivid imagery. I confess, though, I am having trouble pinning down your kireji.
Thanks for contributing!
