This week’s Haiku Challenge at Ronovan Writes is to write a haiku using the words (or ideas of) “avid” and “worm.” Having a vegetable garden that didn’t start taking off until a month before first frost this year, I have encountered many a worm, both beneficial and…not.

A little more senryu-ish than I had wanted. Perhaps my lesson today is accepting what is – pests in my garden, so-so poetry and all.
