Haiku Friday: The Scents of Spring

 


I love the smell of this lilac behind my house-- it not only bursts into bloom, but it smells like this moment, that smell of Spring with a promise of summer. And in Minnesota, we love that promise.

So let's haiku about that one of our five senses. Here, I will go first:

Snow has a sound, feel
But not a scent or promise
So we wait for Spring.

Now it is your turn! Just use the 5/7/5 syllable pattern and have some fun!

Do dandelions
Even have a scent or sound?
Better off without.

Scent of fresh cut grass
and of mint that is taking
over the garden

My favorite scent:
The lilies of the valley
Cherished memory

Lilacs are lovely
And winter is now over
Intoxicating

Winter starkness gives
way to an explosion of green:
Hidden life revealed!

Driving the backroads
Windows down, surprising scent
The first cut of hay
