scent of rosewater
distillation of petals
sweetness fills my cup
perfumed flavour

velvet blooms blood rose
subtle scent wafts nose
petals
folds of ruffled rows
vivid color grows
sepals
thorns prick of sorrows
wilted tomorrows
medals
hovering in garden patch

butterfly trio
white petals flirt
passing wings
dainty cabbage pests
My haiku flits like little butterfly to Carpe Diem Haiku Kai‘s garden of cabbages…
forte spalla

first violinist
confidence dressed in black gown
tunes the orchestra
beauty of music’s notes rise…
to fall like scented petals.
