Pansies in the shade, Charlotte Rhodes Butterfly Garden, Southwest Harbor Maine
(c) 2014 Saradunn
Pansies and violets both belong to the genus Viola, and almost all of these flowering plants are perennials treated as annuals. Their flowers have a long bloom time, usually from spring through frost in cold regions, and can bloom all through winter in warm regions such as California.

For this slow spring rain to soak
The violet beds.

My Troiku response to the prompt:
.
I give permission
for joy to fill my heart
violets smiling
.
For this slow spring rain to soak
life giving showers to all the earth
chickadees cheer
.
The violet beds
under the snow and cold
slumber ~ deep down warmth

My haiku response to the prompt:

soaking spring rains
seek and find the violet beds
smiling faces

TROIKU, A new form of haiku
As you maybe know I have created the Troiku
It’s a kind of creativity with haiku …
in short you have to use every line of the haiku (three in total)
as the starting line for a new haiku.
The Troiku is created as you have written three new haiku.
I love to challenge you, but remember it’s not an obligation,
to turn the given haiku by Richard Wright into a Troiku.
