"Spring has sprung.
Spring has riz.
I wonder where
The birdies is."--Donald Vidra (my daddy)
Daddy used to say this all the time
when he got tired of winter. :-)
I think Winter is over for Texas. The
next few days are supposed to be
sunny, windy and warm, with highs ap-
proaching 70 degrees. :-) (And this,
after 5 inches of snow fell on Valen-
tine's Day. Weather in Texas is never
dull.)
Karla, 6 words for ya'...I got your spring for you! LOL! Still brisk here, snowed yesterday, 3 inches, melted most of it today, will be gone by the weekend...always enjoyable, Ed & Rufuz
Wonderful write Karla, and your dad had talent he passed on to you;-)Weather will be weather whether or not;-)...glad you had the snow before the spring...

I'm in Australia and it's summer here and very hot, but spring is my favourite season and it doesn't even snow here! I can understand you being winter weary....nicely said!
Hi Karla. That little dittie sounded familiar. I think the version I heard went:
Spring has sprung,
The grass has riz,
I wonder where
The birdies is.
But don't be fooled, my friend. Winter's probably just drawing back and gathering its energy to plant a haymaker in a few weeks. It's just waiting to let us drop our guard. LOL See you on AD.
Best regards,
Leland

Looking forward to Spring, like you Karla! Lovely Haiku
Very nice haiku, Karla; but personally, I don't look forward to the spring here in Texas..too much severe weather! Remember last year? We were BOTH a bundle of nerves! Enjoyed this write, though; thanks for sharing!
