All lovely, beautiful in their own right and in tune, colour, perfume and harmony with each other. Obviously I am not "au fait" with the haiku-format, as thought 1st line had to have 5 syllables, 2nd 7 and 3rd 5. No matter, as loved them all !

Thank you for your review. The 5-7-5 format is the maximum syllable count. Haiku is 17 syllables or less.
I will put a link of the Haiku: http://www.nahaiwrimo.com/home/why-no-5-7-5
Comment from Rasmine
Good haikus.
My favorite is:
amethyst color branches
of wisteria tree
-perfume air-
This is a great haiku, just that the satori has too many syllables, and is more like a sentence. I suggest 'wisteria flows'. The last sentence has only 5 syllables.
fragrant breezes
of amethyst flower-
flow through wisteria tree
I forgot to go to the club again. I was distracted--we are having inspections so I cleaned all day and just watched a movie last night. I didn't even think of the club damn! I hope I don't miss prayer Wednesday on the radio today. Maybe I'll go tonight if anyone is around and I remember (the big part).
I also wrote on my breaks. Can't believe I missed it again.

Thank so much for the review Rasmine, yah, that one maybe had a bit much, but either way as long as it's under 17 it's fine; This is why I did a suite, some may be good some not. no worries, I'll chat with you later.
Comment from Thomas Bowling
An excellent example of a repeating Haiku. Haiku is difficult enough without writing several of them based on a single theme. Good work.

Thank you Thomas, The reason for so many similar is due to the Haiku challenge; It put more of a variety out there.
I am new to writing Haiku so many will increase my chance of being in the anthology book.

I like how the haikus are linked by similar words and phrases. You do give strong images and ideas of scents in these words. But I do think after seven it seems repetitive.

Thank you for your review. LOL , I do know it is reapeated and rephrased; The reason for this on the Haiku Challenge, is because only one Haiku per subject can make it into the Anthology book if it's chosen. Fanstory only allows 2 posts a day,
so I had posted 2 suites on 2 different trees. I am new at writing Haiku, I don't know which to be best. Thank you again.

You're welcome. I find haikus hard to write even though they are short.
