early morning
the heat of potting soil
straight through my gloves

I like the way you have brought in more than one "temperature sensation" here:
"early morning" and "the heat of potting soil"

This is also a very tactile haiku:
"straight through my gloves"

And the overall haiku also give us a sense of smell of that season.

A deceptively simple looking haiku but with lots packed in, but in such a way that the reader has plenty of room to move about in.

This is definitely a haiku to be earmarked for a collection.; June 4, 2008 at 8:07 AM
