Oh, this is great. I love the use of the word "spent." I love the bed makes me think of flower beds as well as the kind we sleep in. I love how the first line sets the tone. No doubt about it . . . masterfully done!
This is really a nice haiku. love the way you have used the prompt in such a natural way. Strong and beautiful. Great imagery you have painted here with your words. Almost like the classical masters.
