a tender petal
dreams of becoming flower
before a hailstorm

Stunning haiku! Makes me think of a young girl's dreams before life's harsh lessons.

Wow! This is awesome, Rajat I'm thinking a young bride-to-be is excited for proposal, but she doesn't know what marrying such guy entails. Then again, what comes to mind, is the inevitability of rain on parades. This haiku is simply beautiful in its own way.

Great pen Rajat! Wow! the imagery of this haiku is astounding my dear friend. Deep stuff here. I have to let you know that I believe that you're very good at this surreal- kind of haikus. Amazing visuals! A 7 from me! Have a lovely day! In his light! God bless! :) D."
