Firework







after the rain -
a firework explodes
on the ground






this special morning -
firework chrysanthemums

enjoying a bath

These flowers are called "Firework Chrysanthemums", hanabigiku 花火菊.

Chrysanthemum is a kigo for All Autumn. The stronger varieties flower until way past the first snow.

Here are some more from my garden.
