After Basho



***

No poppies bloom
in warm October light
daisies stand in

daisies speak
their own silent words
to open hearts

    I am glad to see you here on Carpe Diem Barbara. These haiku are wonderfully composed and so in touch with the haiku by Basho. I can see you were inspired by the haiku of Basho. It's in the spirit of Basho. Thank you for sharing.

    Daisies are acceptable stand-ins for poppies!

    Instead of Poppies

    When daisies speak, who listens? Only those with hearts tuned aright.
