a haiku

Although I usually try to use the techniques of the haiku family of literature in writing prose, on occasion I will also compose haiku properly speaking.

Here is one I wrote for the contest being run by @dbooster. If you're at all interested in the Japanese tradition of haiku, definitely give him a follow.

I'm re-presenting it in this post here for people who don't follow him yet. Let me know what you think!
