And There Was Light-

“And there was light… “

Golden radiance 
Treetop waves glow pure brightness.
Warming all that lives.

Hi Dane Ann :) the imagery that this haiku has is really beautiful, wish you the best in the contest! I'm also curious about your contest---hmm so you can't see the entries? Poetry Soup seems to have a major glitch since I don't think anybody can view the blogs, hope this gets fixed soon! happy weekend!
