This 5-7-5, Lemon Suite, has the proper formatting and presents both the fruity produce from the trees and the power source of all nature, the bees which buzz about. Cool.

An excellent suite of haikus concerning the growth and development of a harvest of lemons. Well thought through with the setting out. Best wishes for the contest.

.I like the constant of the bees bussing about as the lemon tree bursts with blossom, the fruit forms, the lemons grow, the fruit is picked. The bees have a big part in our food production. Goodluck in the contest, well written.
cheers

And where would we be without those busy little bees... They are such hard workers and bring life to our gardens. A very nice set of haikus. Thank you for sharing.

A wonderful classic haiku as specified for the contest. Beautifully written and illustrated. I'm lemon crazy so this was pretty pleasing in this uniquely styled offering.
Sending you my best today as always, and my best wishes in the upcoming vote.

very nice. The reader can just picture the blossoms and the lemons, and even almost hear the bees.
Good last line.
Best of luck in the Haiku contest.

Your haiku series beautifully captures the essence of a sun-drenched citrus grove, painting a vivid picture with simple yet effective imagery. The repetition of "the bees buzz about" creates a rhythmic continuity that ties the three haikus together, giving the reader a sense of the grove's lively atmosphere. Each haiku stands strong on its own while contributing to the overall scene, which is not an easy balance to achieve.

    Well, this is an amazing haiku review. You have no idea how few people on this site "get" haiku. You really got the "mood" I was trying to create. This review made my day. Thank you

This is a nice Haiku suite for the contest. Those bees just can't stay away.
From the blossom to the basket full of lemons they're in heaven.
I am too when I smell them.
Good luck in the contest.
Nancy
