Botanical Haiku Pangram

A pangram I composed as a 5-7-5 haiku and wrote in Uncial script.

Japanese styrax
Mid dark leaves, bright bells zigzag —
wild look quick-favored.

Pangram: A sentence that contains at least one instance of every letter in the alphabet.

Styrax: A species of shrub. Styrax japonicus is known as Japanese styrax or Japanese snowbell.

Uncial: A popular calligraphy hand that I studied this spring. (Pronounced UN-sh'll.)
