Lone Bird: A SenHai

Written for SenHai Saturday where our host
Susi asks us to write a senryu and haiku
using this image as inspiration.

Senryu

spring puts on a show ….
one small bird takes center stage,
pretends not to care

⌘ ⌘ ⌘

Haiku

cherry blossoms drift ….
a lone bird rests among them,
blue sky holds the spring.
