Love the colors and the imagery it helps to portray. I could sense every word and feel every color. The 'child smiles' brought a smile to my face as well. Good job

More than children would smile here if it rains. Burning ban on and can not burn the rubbish. Great poem. Great contest piece. Hope you win. If you do, send the rain.

Font colors have been used imaginatively to relate to the seven colors VIBGYOR of rainbow. The picture is breathtakingly beautiful. The last line sums up nicely leaving smiles on everybody's face.

I like your use of colors in your poem. A child smiles is a wonderful last line that captures the feeling that a colorful rainbow brings to all of us. Excellent use of words that creates a clear scene.

Nice Haiku about rainbows. However, when I look at the accompanying picture, I don't think of a child smiling. The mountains and water just seem more adult-oriented. Without the picture, it's a good haiku.

No matter what age, child or adult, rainbows charm and excite--"oh look, a rainbow!" Your colorful haiku stresses this delight we all feel.

soaked earth smells like rain

as rainbow peeks between clouds

a child smiles

I think a rainbow makes adults smile also. Nicely done.

This is a very good entry into the Rainbow contest. I love the way you have the text all the colours of the rainbow. Also soaked earth smells like rain a clever line. Well done, I wish you the best of luck in the contest Mary

What adorable imagery :-)

the gloom of rain exits
spreading a farewell rainbow
and smiles

(I Like your ROYGBV presentation ;-)
