A real spring feeling here, polona. Some purists might object that "eager" personifies. For myself, I find it an entirely understandable projection. Eager for spring to work its magic, I project that eagerness onto the buds.
pat: thank you. i guess anticipation is what keeps us going.
aurora: thank you so much.
bill: thank you for your comment. of course this is not the kind of haiku i would be submitting to editors, but i think it is quite appropriate for recording little details that make our lives.
floots: thank you. it is in fact a horse chestnut, quite common around here. we're all missing things... and internet can bring some of them closer to us...
