    Very nice piece, with some great word choice, but the last line went over the syllable limit by one syllable. Nicely done though, for an out-of 5-7-5 piece.

      Thank u

      Thank u for the comments, but one thing I just wanted to point out its in a 5/7/5 haiku format, but the poem keeps shifting and can't quiet figured out how align the ku just right. Saddie23

    Wow. That was beautiful. You stayed true to the element of nature and seasons for a haiku. Excellent job! I liked the picture as well.
    Write on.

    Great Work!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Although I cannot write this style of poetry, I enjoy reading it from time to time. This one did not disappoint at all. You create such imagery with s few words and the picture is perfect to boot. I wish you well in your contest you entered and thank you for sharing this lovely pice of nature with me this morning!!!Great work nce again!!!~~Toni~~

    Promise...sing

    The image does more than justice to the text and heightens the overall effect. As you are well aware haiku and senryu are explicitly 5 7 5 (as the contest implies)

    Unlike the previous comment which may have been copy pasted I can only count 12 syllables ... perhaps my mistake ?

    While agreeing that the number of colours in the rainbow was arbitrarily determined through the prism by Newton's assistant whose eyesight was apparently extraordinarily acute, before leaping the rainbow perhaps it would help to walk through the 5 7 5 wavebands ... afterwards, of course ...

    Poetical rules
    should be ingrained then ignored -
    only the heart schools

      thank u

      thank u for the critique and as the rules so noted was it didn't have to be in the original haiku format or did I interpret the rules wrong.

    aah... true haiku... absolutely beautiful... it's amazing what you can do with seventeen syllables.

    I wish you all the best of luck in the contest
