Dear friends of MLMM,

First I have to apologize … I had a very busy week and hadn’t the opportunity to create this item here for MLMM. As you all know my item is always online at Wednesdays, but I am really late this week. I hope you will (and can) forgive me for being late.

This week I love to challenge you to create haiku with the theme “plum blossom”, it’s spring and the plum starts to bloom everywhere around us. So this week I am looking forward to your haiku about plum blossom.

A haiku by Issa on plum blossom:

plum blossom scent –
when I open my paper door
a bright moon

And two which I created in the past:

red plum blooming
while the last snow is melting –
finally Spring

the shivering cold
creeps into my old skeleton –
white plum blossoms

Have fun!

About Chèvrefeuille

I am a Dutch haiku poet. And I am the owner and host of the weblog "Carpe Diem, a daily haiku meme" on Blogger (or Blogspot). I am writing haiku since the late eighties and in 2005 I became an international known haiku poet and in 2011 ten of my haiku were included in a worldwide anthology "Spasms of Light". With that anthology I became an even more known haiku poet. In October 2012 I started my daily haiku meme.
