Among the crocus,
A rainbow Easter lily
Rises this morning.
Hummingbirds and butterflies
Somersault, waiting their turns.

Write the haikai poem of your choice (haiku, senryu, haibun, tanka, haiga, renga, etc.) that alludes to the Easter Lily.
I love the idea of somersaulting hummingbirds! Lovely poem,
