With the water can

In her pretty little hand

She sprinkled the plants.


I have only just bucked the apostrophe myself recently.I wasn't being pedantic.

She sprinkled the plants
From a great height with liquid
Manure from the horse.

"Manure from the horse -

He said with a snort
'Please keep it off, a Haiku's
Better without it.'

That was quick thinking,
Unpissed, the not-serious,
Held on to his hat.

Held on to his hat
in the blustery wind. He
hopes he won't blow 'way.

That apostophe comes in quite handy in this game!

It's Mother Nature

The rest you can fool.

The rest you can fool
But not to rest is foolish
Take it from a fool
