Three Haiku

Think of an event, natural or otherwise, that signals the beginning or end of a season, such as the first snowfall, the first day of school, daffodils in bloom, leaves changing colors, or the last football game of the season. Freewrite for a few minutes about this event, focusing on the small details of the event and the emotions the event produces in you. Then write a haiku consisting of three, unrhymed lines about the event you have chosen. The first and third lines should have five syllables each, and the second line should have seven syllables.
