flickers of sunshine
sneaking a quick look at them
exquisite flowers

I don’t know its name
just fascinated by them
as well as the sun

  2. Your haiku brought a nice haiku into my mind by Basho and I just felt the need to share it here with you. I think this haiku by Basho fits your set of haiku very well in the way of the same imagery.

    a leaf from an unknown tree
    sticking to it
