A Year in Haiku

Keep seeing this Haiku stuff all over the place so I thought I'd give it a go (just hope I can count).

So here is my Year in Haiku

Haiku inspires me
When the world outside is cold;
Still waiting for snow.

Fast forward in time,
Resplendent trees in blossom;
Nature has new clothes.

Pale people rejoice,
Sunlight bathes calming meadows;
The bees are in flight.

A golden palette
Chosen as the old year wanes;
The light is fading.

The Solstice is here
For feasting and gift giving;
Holly and Ivy.

So, marks out of ten please? :o)

Ten!
Had a hilarious (and, yes, I confess slightly inebriated) evening with friends recently where we decided we'd only communicate in haiku. So every statement was preceded by silent mouthing of syllables and counting on fingers, before a triumphant declaration along the lines of 'I would like some tea. Anybody else want one? Putting kettle on.' Hopeless - but great fun!

Ah, I sense a new trend - after-dinner haiku!
