Haiku Assignment 1

 I liked the word choice in this haiku and thought that the words gave me a lot of room for creative manipulation of the html text. I wanted to keep the stylization very subtle yet aesthetically pleasing.

For the first line, I wanted to give it a classic storybook kind of feel, so I enlarged the first letter and changed the color; keeping it simple while still looking good.

I wanted to fool around with different font styles for the second line, boldening the word, "throbbing" and changing its font to have some contrast. I felt the best color to embody the word would be maroon.

The final line I decided to focus more on manipulating the color scheme, showing a transition from warm colors to a cooler green to represent the word blooming. I also increased the font size gradually, building it to an epic finale.
