Feelings Never Die
It is Valentine's Day again, and it bought back memories that were over fifty years old. It bought me back to 1971, and I woke up and I knew my baby was due today. I was big and pregnant, and I felt like I was about to burst wide open. Imagine my surprise when the doctor told my I had a due date of February 14. I couldn't believe it, and since my baby was due today, I felt I could indulge myself a bit. I had gained a lot of weight, and chocolate was on the no-no list, but I had came to the end of this pregnancy, and I hoped it would be okay, after all I would deliver this baby today. So I walked across the street to the grocery story, and bought myself, a peppermint patty, covered in chocolate, my favorite. Me and my Valentine's baby would enjoy it together.

Love the humor of your haiku. The deer wins in the end!
Looky here! Fabulous haiku and wonderful placement!!! Hugs my friend
I misleafed myself, thinking autumn and leaves and missing that it was apples here which were fallen! Nevertheless, a lucky deer!
I used to live in Vermont and loved watching the deer peck at fallen apples in the orchards. Beautiful haiku.
Aww... This was lovely! ☺️
this poem made me smile... loved the speckled apples that missed the pie
The deer looks satisfied <3 lol
Yay for the deer!
That is a great take on the scenario, deer gets the apple
Ha ha....love the deer, Andrea! A clever autumn Haiku!
