Bush Warbler's Song - #72JapaneseMicroSeasons #haiku #syllabicpoetry #poem #poetry #poetrycommunity #writer #writingcommunity @YvetteMCalleiro


Hello, beautiful readers! For this second week in the 72 Micro-Seasons of Japan, Colleen Chesebro introduces us to the micro-season of kenkan su, or bush warblers start singing in the mountains. She shared a fascinating link to learn more about the Japanese bush warbler. It even includes audio examples of the bird's beautiful songs. 

I decided to write a haiku, which is a poem of three lines with a syllabic pattern of 5-7-5.

a bush warbler smiles
winter retreats, spring begins
mountains echo songs
