Wondering why people are saying short and sweet
Dear A-Dog,
Fisrtly my name: Adamastor. Kepp it for future reference, or to show off to other people and say "Ha ha! Adamastor commented on my poem and not yours!".
I would first like to ask why so many people have commented saying "Short and Sweet" when this is a Haiku. It won't get any shorter, it won't get any longer. A haiku is this length, and thus is not novel to have it short and sweet. It's like saying "I like how you've wrote this sonnet using 14 lines". Anyway, that's not your fault. It's theirs.
Anyway, a subject that always does well is seasons. Wether the season be Spring, Winter or Duck, it always makes an interesting write since different people have different opinions and perspectives of the seasons.
Anyway, I think this Haiku deserves a score of two, however, since I have nt got many points due to the fact I am trying to score many people's poetry, I can only afford to offer you one point. Rest assured that although I am only giving you ascore of one point, the actual REAL score is in this comment - 2.
Adamastor. As usual.

Yes I agree with you. People should not say short a Haiku is made to be short. Thank you for the comment and the applaud.

Really short and simple, but it captures the gentle entry of spring into the chain of seasons after a long winter ^-^.
