Crocus

At my last Chinese brush painting class, I felt inspired by the newly hatched crocuses.



















This calligraphy means "spring" "flower".




















The moment calls for a haiku, I think:

and after such a year
the first crocus
in its usual place

  2. I thank you for selecting my poem from A Long Year. Most appropriate with your painting.
