Congrats R K on your first rose. I recently spotted the first primrose as opposed to prim rose. Does that count? Am I cheating?

The snow is back. The primroses are nowhere to be seen. The only thing now to see in the snow the footprints of the neighbourhood fox.

Admirable haiku and a pleasure to read. It is early spring in my region (Pacific coast USA, Southern California).
