flower in flames
imbued with vernal essence
a golden blaze

My response to Carpe Diem #1636 California poppy (modern kigo)
Today’s modern kigo for spring has been taken from Jane Reichhold’s Dictionary of Haiku, section spring, sub-section plants: it’s ‘California poppy’.
The haiku example was created by Jane Reichhold and she used it as an example for this modern kigo:
expanding the warmth
the first poppies
in spring sunshine
Beautiful… (@—>—)
