haiku challenge

[gfish]

Challenge: write a haiku involving sakura blossoms and death.

So far we have...

hsifyppah: Sakura-gazing / My mouth agape with wonder / I choke on blossoms

gfish: Drifting with the flow / Gently lodged in constriction / Bam! Sakurastroke!

hsifyppah: Sakura blossoms / Tickle my constricting throat / Anaphylaxis

gfish: Transient beauty / Passing swiftly through my head / At point nine nine c

hsifyppah :Delicate petals / Fill my heart and my spirit / And my alveoli

aimless on a saturday
did not see the train

Time Passes Always
I watch the blooms come in spring
My time is ending

delicate flowers
should not be viewed during
a grand lightning storm

lovely pink petals
rain down upon my body
and also the trunks

Hee hee hee.

Cherry blossoms fall
And the tree along with them
Onto my car. Fuck!

Twirling in the breeze
Petals cloud my eyes into
Hushed oblivion

Falling from the trees
Down towards my head with great
Local gravity

Cherry blossoms swirl
I take no notice of them
In my hunt for brains

Every new year
a hundred children choke on
sakura mochi

Star gazing beauty
White Sakura in black silk
not see cliff, fall, and die

Sakura blossoms
I left them on your grave. Shit!
Shouldn't have worn heels.

as the blossoms fall
two samurai enter but
one samurai leaves

So how many syllables does "alveoli" have anyway?
