I Quote, You 'Ku - Day 2

This bud of love, by summer's ripening breath,
May prove a beauteous flower when next we meet.

~Juliet in Romeo and Juliet, Act II, Scene 2, Shakespeare 

Your challenge is to write a haiku or tanka (or choose one of your previously published works) that has a connection with the themes/feelings/images of the above quote, without just restating what has appeared in the text, to create a haibun. Play around with it and see what you come up with. Enjoy!
