spring spots (haiku)

Four inches of snow fell overnight and no trace of a breeze on this March morning



more & more
in patchy sunlight
spring spots

a warm night
a quiet farewell
of  the winter

behind the old fence
a gathering of snow
what is he waiting for?

clearer skies
it withers and breaks
crystal ice

noon heat . . .
snowy heap
pretending to be  a spring
