A new day a new haiku

As waves on oceans So music converts motion Into emotion
The first bluebells sound Chiming under the coppice They toll for the spring
Sticky cleavers climb Bluebells chime, hailing spring time Fragment mint and thyme
Under spreading limes Can you hear the bluebells chime? With what do they rhyme?
So loosen the ropes A solitary drifter on The deep bluebell sea
Let go of your hopes And focus on what you have Before it is gone
As the years roll by Now I am flipped upside down Me replaced by we
Bluebell buds begin Sometimes springtime sunshine shades Things I thought I thought
Keep reminding me To cherish the every day Before they are gone
Perfect purple bells Tumble from the woodland floor Where did they come from?
Gentle purple clouds The same scent our fathers smelt Floats through the woodland
Even at the edge Of this chalky green cliff top The bells ever toll
