Today, April 17th, is National Haiku Poetry Day. According
National Day Calendar (NDC) to this holiday was registered by Sari Grandstaff in 2007 and implemented as a project of The Haiku Foundation in 2012.
The aforementioned reference explains that
"Haiku poetry is a form of Japanese poetry that is non-rhyming and normally consists of 3 lines with a syllable pattern of 5-7-5."
In honor of this occasion, I'm posting a haiku about the flower type known as
Muscari, which I have growing in a container (that is also a home home to my
Sweet Autumn Clematis*) in the southeast corner of
my garden.
