On a sillier note...

flewellynDubbug, it seems, is allergic to cherry blossoms.
When she told me this, I immediately thought of haiku. You see, true traditional haiku (of which most internet "joke" haiku are not) involve the changing of seasons, and often refer to the cherry blossoms as a sign of spring. Generally, "joke" haiku do not, and are more like the similar (but different) form of poetry known as senryu, which are about humorous subjects and human foibles. But maybe I could create something akin to a real one!
So emboldened, I came up with this:
Cherry blossoms bloom
A sneeze sounds in the silence
Dubbug holds her nose
