FLOWER Bloom 2/25/26 Wednesday By Mariann Carroll Karen had been with Tony for 7 years. Tony started acting strangely after her surgery. He would mow the lawn in the rain and be on his cellphone. He started pushing Karen away. Tony came clean about seeing someone. Karen moved out two months later. Karen moved in with a friend. She felt betrayed.

What a bright, cheerful entry! 💛
Beautiful flowers, beautiful kaiku. ⚡💙Bill⚡
Yellow one of my favorite colors in the box of crayons. Good one.
Beautifully done, Paul. Gives me warmth
The slowness of three short sentences brings me joy. Well made, laddie!
Like Lana, this makes me think of summer. Interestingly, haiku always feel short to me, but this feels long and slow like a summer morning. Very cool!
I could almost hear the chirping of morning birds to accompany this Haiku. It definitely took me to a peaceful Spring morn when life is peaking back into the world. Beautifully written!
Oh, I miss summer so much! This made me think of summer, Paul.
Sounds like the beginning of a perfect day.
Love 'yellow light brightens'.
Ahh, this hit the spot just perfectly! I'd almost forgotten what the sun looks like, but then I woke up to a clear sky this morning and it's been sunny all day!
I can’t wait until it’s light again in the morning!
