Haiku--By Elizabeth Howard--United States

botanical gardens
she wants names of all colors
not on her chart
_________ 

tiger lilies
generations of grandmothers
passing down seeds
_________ 

Indian springs . . .
following meadowlark song
to the wildflowers
_________ 

surrounding the sites
of burned cabins . .  .
daffodils and yucca 
_________ 

Elizabeth Howard lives in Arlington, Tennessee. Her work has appeared in Comstock Review, Big Muddy, Appalachian Heritage, Cold Mountain Review, Green Hills Literary Lantern, and many other journals.
