body remedies: 3 haiku on the first day of spring

1.
song sparrows and ants
promises of the season
call, march this new day

2.

the dogs, being kind
let me sleep in -- grace
is best unspoken

3.

body remedies:
hot coffee, fresh air
a cold face wash

1.

Ol’ rubber sole
soaked and ratted thru
a tired old sponge

2.

sparrows hop at supper
’round the shop floor
six picky janitors
