Wow, what an incredibly meaningful poem. Your syllable usage was excellent, and "veiled threat on display" made think like not many poems have been able to do before.

The first two lines of this poem flow and connect well. The last line says it all! I really liked the last line - it was mysterious and became thought provoking for me! The poem flows and connects well. The artwork is awesome and goes very well with these words.

In my opinion, this is a remarkable write - smooth with just a marginal touch of caustic humor, causing me more than a moment's chuckle - thank you. I just could not do less than Six Stars. We all need more laughter - every where - thank you again. Best wishes in the contest with this jewel...

This haiku, gives us the freshness of an ordinary morning, then a foreboding and the inclination that something is about to happen...I find this haiku intriguing.

Most sparkling lines: Veiled threat on display.

Good luck on the competition.

Usually I would caution against using this kind of font, but for this image and these words, it works! I though this was a tremendous use of very few words, with "veiled threat" bringing up an actual image of a veil. Really well done. Good luck to you in the contest!

It makes me think when I see something spun so well as a web. We're going to knock them down, of course. For starters, we don't know what kind of spider lives in them. Despite this, they worked for hours. If they were looking for places out of sight, you would think they would find them. Thanks for sharing.

Faith,

This is a wonderful Haiku. The first two lines expresses nature's innocence displayed in the silky spider's web. The words 'morning droplets cling' in the first line implies there is something more to be wary of. And the third line 'veiled threat on display' completes the thought with the danger explicitly revealed.

All the best in the contest,

Eugene
