You are so fortunate to have family surround you. Your poem tells of your happiness. That you can say, "my life is complete" is a wonderful thing.
The poem is excellent.
Good luck in the contest.

This is a lovely little poem in 5-7-5 format and fully fulfilling this particular contest's haiku definition...You use the opportunity to get yourself into the haiku wonderfully here with your repetitive and effective My's. I like the poem which leaves the reader with a warm and satisfied feeling and is a good tribute to family life.

Concise, clever and very effective.

This is a heartfelt and precious haiku that "swells" with beautiful sentiment and feeling. You have done an excellent job of expressing what you truly love - your family! Your entire presentation created a warm, loving experience. Lovely, really lovely! - Karen

So beautiful; so true. I'm told that men feel the same swellings of love that women do, but I have to wonder... Sometimes my heart is so full, I don't know if ANYONE can truly understand. Your poetry says it all. I wish I had a sixth star to give you. Good luck in the contest. Blessings, Slush Pile

    Slush Pile... Your virtual stars and your kind words are worth more than anything else. I truly appreciate your thoughtfulness. As for the men, my 26 yr old son is as romantic as I am...So men can be if they so desire. Thanks again - Carol

Great job with this piece. You conveyed the message of how important support and love from family is to creating joy within. Without family who else can you turn to? I am just glad I was blessed with a family that I know loves me and can help me through troubled times :)
