    Beautiful haiku!

    This is a beautiful haiku, the background and graphic you have chosen well compliment your theme.

    Well Done!

    Short, sweet, reminiscent, sad, and poignant. I love it.

    Great haiku, dearie. Keep it up.

    What an exquisite haiku. There is a time for the roses to blossom, and another time for them to perish. I hate watching them wither, however...it signals the coming of winter, the most brutal season of the year on your skin and body! I really like this one...I am not that good with haiku, so...I'll will leave that art to an expert like yourself.

    Many blessings,

    Raven Aurora
