Since No One Chose Japan......

Okay, easy's up. Now you get to move on to the bigger stuff.
Easter is just past, and spring has sort of sprung (don't worry, it''ll be back), so let's mark the moment. How are you at ..... haikus??
In case your memory needs refreshing, here's some information I found in trying to nail down an official definition:

....."a seventeen syllable Japanese Poem three lines long with the form of five syllables in the first and third line and seven syllables in the [second]"...."they often attempt to capture a mood or a feeling"...
Okay, just in case you need an example, I'll give you one, on a possibly remote topic so I don't steal your best idea:

Worms

Squirming in gardens,
Swimming in scummy puddles...
Glad I'm a late bird.


So, what'll it be, Spring, Easter, or something else close to your heart (or your funnybone) ?
Can't wait to read what you'll come up with!

Bees on the flowers,
Flowers on the bright green lawn;
Spring is here at last!

VT makes us sad
Let's pray for their moms and dads
It was really bad

God's the very best
He died on Friday for me

Dandelion puffs,
and clovers sprinkle the lawn.
Weeds can be pretty!
