whiff of sewer.......lovely
In the East it's free
all savour it
and
don't know
it's that bad
is it?

endure ...whiff of sewer..................
then smell and enjoy
fragrances of
roses
lilies
lotus
and
jasmine for sure
you will only then know
what stinks much more
ask the
Mayors
to come forth

not to live all the time indoors
sewers need them more
smell mor
what
whiff of sewer
of course

I just figure everybody would be expecting me to say something pleasant so I killed 2 birds. I gave the twist which Haiku needs plus a bit of humor. Thanks for the visit.......stan
