On a lone flower
The first butterfly of spring
Drinks with great fervor
Laughing mountains discover
Colorful rainbows
March winds stir dandelions
Rooted in spring mud
Wintering insects take flight
After long winter slumber
Spring at last
Mortals sing with joy
Songs of hope

How wonderful that you saw your first butterfly. I think they are a long way off, but I’ll be on the lookout now. You did a great job using all the kigo words.
