ArborApril 13: Nursery Rhymes

Sketch of a flowering tree with 4 haiku poems.

[13] Today’s prompt is Nursery Rhymes
Go to a local nursery to draw trees for sale along with the tree shoppers. Write poems or haiku to go with your sketches.

Taking a bit of a break today…but a here’s a quick sketch and some haiku. Remember self-care. 🙂

Inspiration: It’s National Poetry Month! Take a poem-break.
