Lovely Haiku, Ink! I like the way you made "spins" appear to spin and "swirls" appear to swirl. Very creative my friend. A poet friend in Texas, Tex

From my weirdly shaped haiku, to your more exquisitely spiralling hiku, you paint a beautiful picture of nature here Ink, and even give it wonderful scent, all built around a fragmenting spacetime, how creative is that, cheers David

Omg!! "powdered pastels of time" I could actually smell the breathtaking perfume of peonies, floating in swirling silence that spins so many secrets! What a beautiful hiku you've crafted from your golden quill my dear Ink and I'm awestruck once again! Such a spellbinding atmosphere your words have created, ahhhh... One of the bests for the contest, loveeee it! I could see every word gliding so effortlessly here! Best wishes and light always to you!
