i tether the goat

I think this is well done.

Nice subtlety with the seasonal element, and the blowing hat gives the scene motion.

Title is accurate, but.....

Good kigo, though the adjectives aren't traditional. (I guess you're going for traditional, with the syllable count and lack of a title.) Good shift of focus from close-up blossoms to hat blowing away; lovely final line leaves me to picture the untethered goat finding the hat and chewing it. Very nice, Billy.

dope poem. good combination of opposites. the image of the blossoms blowing away is age-old haiku jargon for the bittersweet feeling of change, but the image of the goat being tethered is so pragmatic and atypical--if you chased after your hat you'd risk losing something far more important.

What a funny hat!

I imagined the goat wanted at those blossoms!
Much floated about in my head!
there's always a better reason to love
