Clever take on sunrise/sunset confusion! Startlng imagery--warmng senses itch (INCH?) forward--not sure if I get the gist.

Sunrise Set's=>SETS
sunset bloom's=>blooms

    Thank you for your Review and Comments, the senses itch was meant as a yearning of direction in movement.
    The Set's and Bloom's are meant as multiples of each when we would travel for fun. I hope that Explains the commas, Please let me know if multiples of each still don't require the commas. Thanks again.

    No matter how many, no apostrophes for plurals--only for possession and contractions, i.e. the bloom's color is red; the bloom's red (the bloom is red).

I like the use of both sunrise and sunset. Haiku can be challenging but I think you got this. I'm not sure about meaning of the sunset bloom but I like the imagery.

    The Sunsets bloom meant my wife and I grew to love seeing them multiple times on return trips and to give a Sense of growing to like seeing them change over seasons.
    I hope that explains it sufficiently.

This is a nicely written poem. Sunrise awaking warming senses itch forward. Sunset blooms relax. Beautiful photo choice also to compliment your words.

Sunrise Set's
by QC Poet


Hello, QC

Thank you very much for your haiku club entry. It's good. I like the presentation and the meaning of your haiku.

My notes:

* Keep all verbs in present tense.....

sunrise (awakes)
(warms) my senses itch forward ~
sunset bloom's relax
,.......................
The syntax needs some adjustments so it makes sense.....

Example....
sunrise awakes
and warms my golden skin ~
look forward sunset

......................

Senses haiku means you use 'hear, see, touch, taste, and smell.

Sunrise awakes uses sight sense; warms skin is touch sense; and last line uses sight too.

These are only suggestions. Let me know if you need help.

Gypsy

This has such rich tones, and the picture fits perfectly, Love the line 'warming senses itch forward' a lovely way to describe the rising warmth of the sun. :-)

Very nice. Yes there are similar and opposing senses at work during sunrise and sunset. The first is a awakening of excitement, possible and perhaps a grand adventure, and the sunset is one of peace and relaxation after a full day.

Well crafted.

So much set in so few syllables. Artwork is awesome too -- a drone or eagle? The creator gave us a bright light for the day and a lesser light for the night. Maybe we would all be better off if we receive what he provided. I look forward to reading more of your work.

I like the picture... Sunrise and sunset both are beautiful. I like your poem: "sunrise awaking
warming senses itch forward ~
sunset bloom's relax..."

People should wake up with hope like the sun is rising... After a day's work, people should relax starting from sunset.

Happy writing.

I think the title the picture, and the verse are well matched, the picture could be either a sunrise or sunset, the verse speaks to me of awakening or burgeoning curiosity and senses and the end of day time to meditate. Well done
