clover opens
to an audience of dewdrops
the sun has yet to dry
----------
autumn roses linger
on age warmed vines
vibrant leaves cascade
----------
buttercups runneth
under the chins
of laughing children

I love the audience of dewdrops. For me, that's the best line, although I like them all !!! Excellent work!
The audience of dewdrops is awesome, but as a mother of an adult missing those childhood experiences, I love the buttercup one.
Another "Betty" poem? Can I at least pretend to be the clovers so I can have an audience? Just kidding-I am seeing a "generational" infuence here. Autum roses- buttercups/ children etc. The older piece regarding your "abuser" was a huge step for you(or anyone for that matter), keep on that track-what helps you to recover-helps all you love. S
And those buttercups do overflow! These are marvelous.

A bouquet of lovely images. I can't decide which I like best. Thank you for this.
I especially like the third one - it tells me that people still do these things I've not done for years.
Do people still make daisy-chains?
As I told you yesterday SisterDear, the clover opening to an audience of dewdrops bowled me over! Applause, Applause!
These are all lovely, but I agree with billy about the "audience of dew drops." That's just delightful.
Bellavia, "vibrant leaves cascade" I love that! Well done haikus! :D

The clover opening with the audience of dew is simply totally perfectly perfect. I love clover and its many meanings. This poem is special for me.

They are all lovely and invoke strong feelings or memories for me. But serious kudos for 'the sun has yet to dry', simply one of the best I have ever read....
All three are so pleasant, just can't decide on a favorite.
I love these; that first one is awesome especially.
These are great - the third one made me laugh!
I like the first one best. Perhaps because the words play out well. :)By the way, thanks for dropping by my blog at Short Sweet Poems.
clover, roses and buttercups... beautiful images... to an audience of dewdrops... thaz great...
Wonderful, all. But I do have to give a special smile to the last as I mourn not only my lost childhood but also the lack of buttercups in these here parts for my own children to experience the thrill.
hi mom...i agree with the earlier commenter
"to an audience od dew drops
the sun has yet to dry"

love, holly
I’m visiting late … (sorry) … and am ‘skipping for now’ your most recent OSI post because I’ve not read the prompt nor written mine for Week 10 … however I appreciate your comments at Small Reflections AND Sacred Ruminations on my ‘Flowering’ posts and am here to enjoy yours ;--)
I love the opening image of the little girl holding the flower … and find the images in each of your Haiku delightfully vivid! My favorite is the 3rd …
I’ll return once I’ve posted for Week 10 myself. Hope you’re having a wonderful weekend.
Hugs and blessings,
Brings back lots of memories of buttercups! Where has all the simple fun of life gone??
