judith meskill's knowledge notes...

spring photo haiku...

my sister manages an art store on "main street" in a small, scenic, new jersey town. every year she decorates the store window and creates a stunning flower box right below the window. then there is a juried competition - which she often wins. this year she placed first in this competition, and honored me by having one of my spring haiku painted onto the front window of the store.

i penned this haiku one early morning in may - while parked on the cherry blossom strewn street before anyone else was stirring but the soulful mourning dove.

main street still slumbers
pink snow drifts on blacktop road
mourning dove coo coos...
