This might been higher, but I'm glad it made the list. It has a smooth, soothing flow, which is kind of a paradox, considering the holiday. Regards, Gerard.

oh, my, THIS , my dear, is haiku!! By the way, I saw you commenting to Nikko on how your comment disappeared. And I know that your MARVELOUS poem did not get into Nikko's contest where it would have deservedly have won big there. CAn you figure out what is going on with you? You need to enter a contest and ask the judge if it is showing. If not, let the staff know. Sometimes our comments go to a new page under a person's poem, but I didn't see a new page under Nikko's. VERY stange. Luv, andrea

That's is so gracious indeed of those stars-- I really liked your take on this--very unique, Sharon! That last line was so cool too! I think it gave a good contrast to the "natural" stars--wish you the best in the contest! nikko :)

form is almost perfect and yes it is haiku rather than senryu since its all nature & no man...line 2 is the least haiku-like and makes the read feel more like a sentence. Put an action in line 2 instead of a continued discription. At the end of line 2 put ... or -- which indicates the next line is the cutting line the line meant to evoke emtion regarding the topic. Hope this helps!
