stupendous. love the back and forth of iron cutting down the source of its making.
♥ Kathraina -
That they do. Nice natural piece.
-
this is nice. i use to write lots of haiku. from time to time i allow myself to write such again.
my only problem here is the period, i suggest it to be this way:
iron cuts, trees fall,
wood flames heating crucible -
dissolving metals.
my thoughts, your call. i just avoid using the same noun within the same line, stanza or poem.
thanks for sharing and keep writing.

Pretty good, I like how you have written this haiku. It's a wonderful image.....
Thank's for entering my contest and good luck! -
A nicely done haiku. I faltered over iron, but indeed it is two syllables so nice job. I like the image it leaves me with.

I don't have a poem called memories, I don't think.
I like this one... At first it was hard to understand, but I tend to be that way with haikus as they are layed out strangely.
Thanks for entring. -

Hi Tory. Many thanks. Have you tried the Haiku form yet? Let me know if you do. Cheers, jimmy

haiku's always amaze me in the way they can get a point across, with only a few words. you've displayed this rather well in this piece! i like the using of the word crucible - where many would use something simple to get their point across you chose something more complex and precise to do it. i'm impressed :] thank you for entering!
