A spring morning
the man at the petrol pump
wears a smile

Hi Xenny,

Hope he wasn't too cold...;) Small but perfectly formed!

What a charming poem certainly within word limits. I know why he is smiling. I wonder what the price of petrol is generally in the UK now. During the crisis it was almost 3.00 a gal in the states. Now, it has come back down, but he may have smiled for other reasons. He may like his job. He may like you. He may be hot. You have to be hot. LOL. Doesn't matter. It is a sharp Haiku. .....

Lovely Xenny - wearing a smile is clever, because it suggests an element of choice. As though he has set aside his winter frown in favour of a lighter cloth!

Great Haiku, Xenny - I love the way such a simple moment carries so much meaning.
