I wasn’t going to comment on this write up yours Charmaine because you didn’t use my favorite color Hibiscus! *winks It’s pink voooman! You nailed this Hiaku, it’s not all about syllables, it’s about telling a story Yet getting it done with 17 syllables of course...purrrrfect...much luv, james

I'll think about this one for a while. I picture a sad dreary morning, holding a warm cup and staring out a window. I hope your morning is brighter than your poem.

I am not too well, Charmaine, but as I woke up this morning, thinking about the soup, I thought of you. You were always a great poet. Pity you stopped. Your haiku is interesting as with mild weather in Malta all hibiscus seem to be in bloom. Hope to see more poems from you. ~~

Hi Charmaine, You’ve penned a well written haiku with imagery that stands out. I could just picture the flower with one lonely petal! Well done. Have a good evening:-) Alexis
