30 Day Challenge: National Poetry Month Edition (Day 1)

It's been a while since I tried doing a 30-day challenge, so I'm doing one this month. I had this idea a few weeks ago about writing a haiku every day, so when I learned that April is National Poetry Month, it seemed only natural to do it now.

Day 1: Blue

Blue is my fav'rite
So calm, so cool, so serene
I should marry Blue
