Upma hon you have 3 parts - and past tense!-here- I will show you two parts [vivid colors splash/ on the holi celebrants:sneezes and laughter] no capitalization because haiku is open ended the reader must have the ability to decide for himself what comes the moment before and after. Congratulations on your winning verse. Light & Love
