This was an excellent response to the club challenge. The imagery of reeds swaying gently in the breeze is so soothing and dreamy. But the sound of divine music adds another dimension - that of sound. Well done!

You have created an artistic and almost melodic image with your words. I love Haiku that makes you feel the words you are reading. Thanks for sharing.

If the music made by reeds is as beautiful as the picture, then paradise could be experienced as the reeds gently swayed. I love the imagery provided by this Haiku presentation. The colors are stunning.

If you hadn't posted the note about reeds making ideal flutes, I probably would have struggled with this Haiku more. Knowing that, I surely appreciate your poem and the beautiful image.

Love this haiku, and the "melodies of divine music" brings to mind songs honoring spirituality. Also, the metaphor of using reeds, because they make good flutes, is very clever.

I like your imagery of the reeds preserving sacred music. Nature does offer us divine music, unchanging throughout the ages, if we would only listen. This is a lovely Haiku, and a lovely thought to reflect upon.
