Your poem ignited fond memories. My first love and I would sit for hours gazing at the sky watching clouds and trying to figure out what they looked like. It was very relaxing and worked our imagination.

I am an avid cloud watcher. I often see animals in the clouds. Your words show the clouds in action and how they often change. "Origami sky" is a perfect last line to sum up your first two lines.

I think every one remembers laying on the grass or sitting on a hill under a tree staring at the clouds and seeing what images they would make for us. I know even my grandchildren enjoy doing it still with me.
Smiles, Carol

Your haiku brought back good memories of when I was a child. I should spend more time looking at the origami sky! Your picture matched the poem perfectly. Very well done, Katie.

This is a great entry for the Haiku Poetry competition. I, too, used to lie on the grass and watch the clouds, trying to pick out animals or other shapes. I love the description of origami sky. Great presentation!

Origami is the perfect imagery for this haiku. It's creative, childlike fun - just like lying on the grass and watching the parade of clouds go by. Great entry for the contest!

-Very nice image and presentation, Katiemae.
-I appreciate your note, and I used to watch
the clouds and pretend I was sitting on them.
-In more recent years, I wrote a series of
cloud Olympic poems; it was a lot of fun.
They are on the site if you want to read them;
review isn't necessary.
-You wrote a very good haiku about the clouds.
-You do a good job describing how they
make various shapes in the sky.
-A very good satori line.
-A good entry; good luck!

    Actually, I wrote a 3 part story about pairs ice skating in the Cloud Olympics. Click on stories and these are the 3 parts.

    I. An Unprecedented Event
    II. A Dramatic Event
    III. And the Winner Is...

    Let me know what you think, but it's not necessary to review. Hope you enjoy them. I can give you poem titles if you want, as well.

That is funny, now that I think of it, that no one else has ever made that comparison. That was perfect. The picture is a wonder as well. Small poems are hard. Much tougher than the bigs ones. very well done. Karen

What a beautiful image you've created with just three lines. For me this made me pause and appreciate the artistry of the sky. Wonderful word choices and a beautiful poem.
