    This is a haiku, since it is about nature. It is not stricktly to the 5-7-5 syllable count, but doesn't have to be.
    This is a lovely Haiku.

    A Senyru is about human nature. Here is the definition:
    A Senyru is a short Japanese poem that is similar to a haiku in structure but treats human beings rather than nature, often in a humorous or satiric way.

    Refreshing

    Ah beautiful! I was expecting more lines but it's perfect as it is, leaving the imagery to the imagination. As always there's a spiritual, uplifting feel that can't help but to raise the mood of the reader.

    Love & peace

    This is great Susan. Your words tell of your colorful dreams, and the affect they have on the mist of twilight. Just beautiful!

    Beautifuly written

    Wow...I've never heard of a Senryu before and this is the first I've seen or read.And I love it very much, so many pictures are streaming in my head. Especially from when you talked about watercolors. Please keep writing these poems, and I hope to read more of them. I also hope you can return the favor and look at some of my own poems. Well bye.

    Susan, this is an awesome Senryu. I have been writing them for a while now and feel comfortable in them finally. You did the form justice with this.

    It's amazing how you can say so much in those few words.

    excellent

    I get a sense of waterfall & sunset imagery here.
    Monet-like lush colors...fuzzy, yet clear at the same time.

    Granted, if it was inspired or descriptive of the accompanying picture (which at this time does not show up), forgive me if I'm not visioning correctly.

    Regardless, I enjoyed this write.
