Spring Haiku
Cheery blossoms bright,
Pussy willows calm;
Pink and white unfurl
~~~~~~~~~
Chinese New Year
Family gatherings;
Auspicious red packets
~~~~~~~~~
Blessings of good cheer
Feasting with delight;
Springtime promises sparkle
~~~~~~~~~
Cheery spirits here
Kin and kind endear;
Roundtable revelry
~~~~~~~~~
Mandarin oranges
Happy greetings paired;
Auspicious vocal couplets
~~~~~~~~~
Farewell to the Goat year
The Monkey arrives juggling;
Amusing antics thrill
~~~~~~~~~
Touch of jazzy note
Upbeat tempo here;
Old time Chinese melodies
~~~~~~~~~
Yu Sheng fortune toss
Prelude to fine waves;
Prosper then our ways
~~~~~~~~~
Spring haiku fest
Welcome to good cheer;
Feast the banquet fond
~~~~~~~~~
