This is exquisite. Not only is the presentation gorgeous, the haiku itself evokes beautiful imagery and the satori is precious! Perfection, IMHO, and it's a form I love. Best of luck in the contest.

You're also out in the country, right? I would reconsider if I lived on a farm or a ranch.
Comment from Val Crisson
Very good entry for this contest, and one of the few that really addresses nature. My only suggestion is that that the title should not have caps, otherwise love everything about this haiku. Especially, the satori line - "early bird special"

Elegant haiku, yes, I agree the best view of dawn is the first morning light and one must wake up early to see that. Otherwise the moment will be lost with every minute of delay. Excellent write.

Comment from Sambangi
Excellent entry for this contest. The first two lines really give a mental picture of the beautiful rays on lake and third one a satori. Wonderful picture complements the poem. All the best

Wow - to promote so amazingly highly, you'll sure get lots of interest.
I prefer haiku to be presented simply, rather than with italics and fancy inclusive artwork, but it's certainly eye-catching.
I suspect this entry will contend strongly.
Good luck and best wishes, Ray.

Comment from Curly Girly
This is a well presented haiku verse. To me, it appears to meet all the sticky criteria demanded by the poetry police. Good luck and best wishes:
first morning light
casts hazy rays over lake
early bird special

Very good grammatical connection
and excellent concrete imagery with morning light
rays and lake
Excellent satori line
4-7-5 gives S/L/S
Perfect presentation with art work
This should do very well in the contest

Your word picture brought a smile to my face. The scene could be right outside my window. Lots of lakes near by and many migrating birds come here and seem to stay. Best to you with the entry.

This a perfect Haiku and I wish you well in the writing prompt. So many times, as simple as it is some people never get it. To them, I recommend our resident Haiku expert, Alvin Ethington.
