Second Haiku

I mean what I say
But not as you hear me now
Spring understanding

My second attempt at a haiku as I learn from the creative individuals at One Stop Poetry and inspired by this week's Magpie.

    Short and sweet, just like the few opening notes of Vivaldi's Spring.

    Thanks everybody. ZephyrInk, I'm embarrassed to admit I don't know Vivaldi's Spring. Looking it up now. :)

    Its perfect Tammy.
    You turned around words and gave a thought to reflect on...
    last line was perfect.
    I enjoyed it.
