apple flower

white apple flower
blossoms during heatwave night
sign of summer soon

My quick attempt at a haiku inspired by our flowering crab apple tree.

I love crab apples, and my best friend makes the best dessert with them. Never really liked writing haiku's too much work. I do however hope to get my collection of poems published one day.

break out the barbecue set
enjoy undercooked meat

Perhaps Mr.Big's is not a haiku 'sensu stricto' but it qualifies 'sensu lato' and is quite amusing besides.

The other two probably are not strict haiku either since I know I just looked at the syllables rahter than metorical feet or anything fancy l;ike that.
