Wrinkled rhubarb leaves
Rose-red stalks bursting with juice
My first bite of spring

Oh, what did you make with your rhubarb? I love the look of rhubarb in a garden and it is very nostalgic for me, since it was always in my grandmother’s yard. This is such a great summer haiku.

The word “rhubarb” is such a strange word, but I like the way it sounds.

this is quite an appealing haiku the alliteration and your choice of the word ‘bursting’
adds all the flavour one needs to savour this little poem
