a poem in my pocket

flautist gardener
first solo: to a wild rose
fragrance of music
 

flautist gardener

symphony of pink blossoms

trilling the high notes

solo: to wild rose

gardener hums while pruning

bees join orchestra

fragrance of music

softly floating vibrato

bow to pink applause

A troika ia a Russian sleigh pulled by a trio of horses hitched abreast of each other; a troiku is  a form of one base haiku (the sleigh) pulled by three stanzas (the horses), each beginning with a line from the original.   I’m not certain I’ve done it correctly but more information can be found at Carpe Diem Haiku Kai site on this interesting form!
