I do Haiku

...but only rarely. I read at Poetikat's Invisible Keepsakes that today is the day - so here is my haiku in honour of the haiku festival:

A thousand blossoms
quiver in the morning sun
May's eager virgins

p.s. It turns out that the idea for the Haiku Festival comes from Tracy at Pink Purl and her friend Elizabeth of About New York , and a grand idea it is, too. I'm a little slow on the uptake, so I didn't get on the official list. I hope they don't mind stowaways.
