    This is a beautiful haiku! I wouldn’t touch it — seems perfect to me.

  • Darla Smith on Mar 21, 2009

    Perfect haiku! I love the pic you used with it.

  • Dee Gold on Mar 21, 2009

    good job

  • PR Mace on Mar 21, 2009

    Good job. Writing a haiku is hard. I have never written one so I researched it and wrote an article about haiku. It is still pending so be on the lookout for it in the next few days. I never knew it was such detailed work. It is a form of art.

  • Uma Shankari on Mar 21, 2009

    Crisp. Good.

  • rutherfranc on Mar 21, 2009

    my problem is, I tend to overlook flaws and just concentrate on the beauty present so I`ll just say the truth.. this is beautiful..

  • F J McCarthy on Mar 21, 2009

    Lovely haiku Kate,you are amazing at whatever you write.

    Wonderful piece…and the photo is simply awesome.

    You express the thought well.

  • CutestPrincess on Mar 22, 2009

    loved it as always!

  • Adam Henry Sears on Mar 23, 2009

    Hi, Kate, how are you?
    This one is much better than your Seduction Haiku! You have everything necessary. Now all you have to do is master the image. :)

  • Aaron Paul Hicks on Mar 23, 2009

    The word lovely sums this up nicely for me……great work as always :-)

  • clay hurtubise on Mar 23, 2009

    Great piece, love it!
    Thanks,
    Clay

  • Bullwinkle Muse on Mar 23, 2009

    far more picturesque and melodic than my fumbling attempts at haiku. lovely indeed

  • Elizabeth Abbott on Mar 23, 2009

    This also is moving. So very true. Like: “The Deep Truth”. E I like it!

  • vim3 on Mar 24, 2009

    As a Haiku(and I am NO expert), this is better, but as far as emotions were concerned, I liked the last one more…which is more important? Well, I don’t know. I enjoyed both:)

  • julianhw on Mar 24, 2009

    Perfect rhythm of Haiku and alliteration as well – plus expert imagery of course! Lovely

  • Tusaani on Mar 25, 2009

    Great poem! Short and sweet, I liked it.

  • Tusaani on Mar 25, 2009

    P.S. I’d click “I Like It” too if my browser would let me.

  • MrZebra84 on Mar 25, 2009

    This one is awesome too, so many people on hear have written haikus… i may have to try one. this is one of the better ones i’ve seen though most definitely.

  • miraj on Mar 28, 2009

    It is perfect in the truest meaning of the word,and sublime too.

    my deepest respect and gratitude,Kate
    LOVE IS ALL

    Walk in beauty change the world.
