Marteniza
Red and white colours
fly in the spring breeze

On 1 March, Bulgarians celebrate the beginning of spring with the tradition of #Marteniza. On this day, friends and family members exchange red and white threads or small dolls known as martenizas. These are worn until the first #Stork or blossoming tree is seen, then they are tied to a #Tree. The red and white colours symbolise health and happiness.

Stoic and focused
on food at its feet, the stork
embodies patience
Lorry overturned
Spreading a load of Stork on

Apple blossoms—
all this dancing
in a bee’s life.

new moon
new womb...
in sync
There once was a bee
Who visited some flowers
Made apples for me

New moon
reflection in a cup
before it fades.

Spring day, sunny skies
Fresh plants, first bees buzzing
Hands begin to dig
Tightly curled fronds stretch
out over the forest floor
in rain-scented air.

Shout-out to all the other pollinators!
quiet forest walk
one loquacious busy bee
makes me want to scream!

The bees awaken
A blooming banquet awaits
Nature’s perfection

Prompt -Bee
Photo from my archives
just a bee or two
looking for bright spring blossoms
not much to choose from
Busy as a bee
I plant bulbs to see next spring
Sweet treats for us all
As much as five miles -
a honeybee will forage
far from the home hive
Daily Haiku Prompt for 30 March: apple (South)
I want to kiss you,
but your red cheeks resist as
I take a small bite
Drei mal drei ist neun
Meine Tulpenschwestern heut‘
Grün und Rot Liebe

-New moon
The stars seem brighter,
Glitter in an ink black sea,
Resting goddess sleeps.
