Overall I’d say it’s ‘cute’. Very universal, but doesn’t evoke strong emotions, doesn’t strike the reader as exeptionally clever, doesn’t sound hugely pleasant when read. It’s good, but I think you could do more with it.

I don’t want to be picky, but it’s ‘embarrassed’, and ‘arguing’.  Your 5-7-5 count is good, which is more than can be said for many.
Can you blush without red cheeks?  Seems a little redundant.

You misspelled “argueing”... there’s no “e”. This is a narrative snippet of a slice of life. It’s technically well executed, but it doesn’t do much more than tell us a mini story. There’s no real “eureka” moment. All the same, it’s a good attempt. Keep writing.

I see what your getting at but with haikus I think they are usually nouns bringing image not really verbs, so I changed it around to give you a different idea.

A loud arguement
Draws a very large crowd blush
brushing on red cheeks

Tried to keep original thought for you.  Peace.

This piece is very direct and straight to the point.  I’m able to see and experience what happened to this person through your description.  Just a spelling error: arguing.  Other than that, good job. This piece definitely describes how you were ‘embarassed.’

I like this but the last line doesn’t work for me, cuz blushing kind of implies red cheeks. I think you could find five syllables to follow “blushing” that would be more effective. Arguing in public is the worst, though.

I like the idea, but not the last line. Everyone knows that when you are blushing, you have red cheecks. other than that it seems good.
