Wonderful continuance with your imaginative metaphor of red wine! Nice alliteration in all lines, Bill! My only critique is to reconsider using the word THE twice. Not ideal in short form. Perhaps you might consider replacing one of them with a descriptive word to get maximum mileage in meaning for the syllables?

Nice presentation!

Warmly,
rd

Fine use of alliteration. Excellent word economy. I liked the vivid images presented here. One can easily visualize the lovers at the beach. The presentation is nice as well.

I liked the picture and the idea of wine color washing in but I don't see the image of berries that the ocean brings back.

How about: the ocean tides crush the dawn
the ocean spills the

Just a thought. I think of wine: crushing, fermenting, spilling

    This haiku connects to a renga. The theme of berries and love is carried over here.

    I have to figure out how renga works on FanStory. I know how it works in group passing. I'll read the fine print on explanation before I give comment. Thank you for that insight.

    You can access this renga by going to chapter one by Pam. There you can add either a haiku or couplet depending on what?s next.

Whoa, now we are getting into something delicious. An ocean of wine might be just the thing to get that love lingering.

A great continuation of the renga and a perfect burgundy sunset. :))

With that lighting, it is reminiscent of wine. This poem is Gorgeously imagined. A nice extension to the entire poetic prompt. Beautiful words and photo.

The first two lines of this poem flow and connect well. The last line
says it all! The poem flows and connects well. I love the color scheme
the author chose. It goes well with the artwork and compliments this
poem. Have a great weekend!

What a great way to describe this beautiful sunset, so unique, yet accurate. It does look like wine has spilled across the land. Nicely done, I love your gorgeous picture.
