Carpe Diem Special #36, Kyoshi Takahama's 'Spring Breeze!'

Today's prompt reminded me that when I was a little kid, we had a 78 RPM RCA Victor Victrola, like this one.

Because this was one of my mom's phonograph records.  Her birthday is next Thursday.  She'll be 92, and she's still going strong.

inspirational haiku

Spring breeze !

on the hill I firmly stand

with the great resolve

difficult for me to wrap my head around

 this is the best i could do

~ 1 ~

when the wayward wind

wafts in tempting from the west

who yearns to wander

~ 2 ~

the mountain stands

with great stony resolve

in time the breeze wins

~ 3 ~

when the breeze blows

the old trombonist listens

and understands

~ 4 ~

in the spring breeze

cherry blossoms flutter down

splendor in the pink

~ 5 ~

in the spring breeze

goose soars like an eagle

moose has hay fever

~ 6 ~

what orb weaver knows

about the springtime breezes

mayfly never learns too late
