a mesh of birdsong
in its weaves the spring flutters
captured

Oh! Quite an image – birdsong as a mesh — wow. Beautifully done, Blake 🙂
And to cap it off with Nick Cave? A favorite! – and it goes with the haiku perfectly. [Am I gushing?]
Thanks, Jen, a gush here and there is always appreciated 😉
It’s been tricky lately getting three lines together, I must say – I’ve had two lines ready for a prompt and then… zilch. Pfft! But this one came from one of our lovely, sunny(!) spring days, which really deserved all three lines 🙂
And Nick Cave was an easy choice here, with the birds and capture – glad you enjoyed it!
Can empathize with those two-line blues… Ach! Especially this week. But this haiku felt effortless. 🙂
(Gush gush!) 😉
Awesome haiku Blake, you did a great job on this new Haiku Writing Technique, baransu.
Thanks, Chèvrefeuille – I must say I found the baransu idea useful in terms of organising what I was trying to say here.
That’s one of the fringe benefits of this haiku writing techniques, it can help to arrange your haiku. Thank you for trying this “baransu”.
