Summer Haiku
A chapter in the book 2024 Gypsy's Haiku

Early Summer

by Gypsy Blue Rose

     
early summer —

yellow plums play peekaboo

between the leaves
 
 
 
 
 




Summer: June 20, 2024 (summer solstice). Fall: Sept. 22, 2024

The Yellow plums are generally small, and round with yellow skin and/or flesh. The meat of the fruit is dense and sweet.

HAIKU is a Japanese short unrhymed poem that uses imagistic language to express the essence of a deeply felt moment in time. It resonates on a deeper level, enlightening the reader and making an insightful connection. English Haiku doesn't follow the 5/7/5 form, because Japanese syllables are much shorter. The rule of thumb is to write it as succinctly as possible and 17 syllables or less.
