the hills glow orange
kissed by flames of spring sunset
dry grass is singing

My response to Carpe Diem #1188 Burning the hills (yama yuki)
Today’s kigo is ‘burning the hills’ (yama yuki), which Chèvrefeuille
says is a common activity in spring, when the dry grasses of winter are burned to prepare the earth for a new season and make it fit for agriculture.
I like the ambiguity; is your poem about real flames or the flame-like?
