English:
I looked at the sky
Some of the tree leaves are pink
And I saw a bird​​
Spanish:
Spanish
Miré al cielo
Algunas de las hojas de
los árboles son rosadas.
Y vi un pájaro
Creative Approach
Since the Haiku I selected included words such as sky, pink, and bird, I wanted to incorporate each of these words into their own symbol. I wanted it to feel fun and whimsical, yet still simplistic. I decided to use a color palette of pink, blue, yellow, and white.
