dog violets
the smell of manure
from a nearby field

The haiku is wonderful Polona.
Little yellow violets are blooming in the backyard today.

The poem is lovely, but drat Blogger form refusing what I am certain is a spectacular photo. HAve you ever considered, Photobucket.com, or the like? That's where I keep my online photos.

Bill said...

As usual, your poems stands alone perfectly well. All the same, I am grateful for those pictures.

Kar nekaj težav je bilo te dni, na skoraj vseh domenah... da o ekspanziji virusov ne izgubljam besed... Vem pa, da boš zadevo porihtala...

Objem v vikend, Lucija

I agree, no need for picture, the words are so vivid and smelly itself :)

neikka said...

v Br jih se nisem ugledala...

Odpocij se in veliko sonca v vikend.

Kdor ne poizkusi, ne more vedeti... me veseli, da je ob ponovnem poizkušanju uspelo...

Pravzaprav sem že prej nameravala vprašati: dog violets? tisti dog spredaj me daje nevedno... Vijolice so vedno bile le violets, vsaj kar jaz poznam angleščino, priznam pa, da je tega bore malo... No, prodali me verjetno ne bi... Tudi angleško pisoči komentatorji me niso kaj bolj razsvetlili???

Oprosti, no... sem prihajam tudi zaradi angleščine... ;)))))))))

Lepo v vikend, razbremenjeno medtedenskih skrbi...

všeč :)

masago: it's as well we can't upload smells, eh!

janice: i'm glad it works for you.
violets are so pretty, no matter in which colour they come...
thank you :)

quilly: well, you can judge the photo for yourself now... nothing to swoon about :o)
i use picasa as the image organiser and don't feel the need to save it on the web.

bill: thank you, i appreciate your words.
i'm aware, though, that my pictures and words are often too closely related.

andrew: so i spoiled you!
glad you like it nonetheless :)

lucija: ja, blogger ga včasih svira... pa se je tudi to razrešilo.
pasja vijolica pa... no, saj se tudi pri nas reče tako tistim, ki ne dišijo (in so bolj pogoste ter jih je najti skoraj vsepovsod)
lep vikend ti želim!

xrafty green poet: thank you

john: thank you

don: perhaps i should post haiku without pictures at times...
thank you and yes, i'm fine :)

ričardas: but thepicture is not of the smelly part :)
thank you

neikka: malo za šalo, malo zares :)
si prišla, ki je bila fotka že gor... včeraj mi je blogger ni pustil naložiti...
lepo bodi, pozdrav!

aleks: me veseli :)

Ojej... torej ni stvar v angleščini, temveč v biologiji! ;))))))) Nisem še slišala za "pasjo" vijolico... Uči se Lučka, uči! Hvala lepa!

Objem v jutro vikenda...

jem said...

Nice contrast and connection in this. The sweet and not so sweet smells that rely on each other.

polona said...

lucija: tako nekako... :)

jem: thank you. however, there are fragrant violets and those without the scent...
