My Own Favourite Haiku - So Far

Haiku for frangipani in bloom:

nocturnal bouquet 
of frangipani in bloom –
olfactory fruits

teasing aromas
adorning a young girls hair – 
swaying moonlit palms

moths seeking nectar
flutter, flower to flower – 
new buds at sunrise.

well, I really like this set!!! I can see why you used these for the contest. I probably should have chosen more wisely than I did in this contest. I think this should do really well!!

How strange! But there is something so compelling about those furry little guys, isn't there?
