Humanity Haiku that's a new one to me. I see it touches on the things created by humanity, and the seasonal word or aspect would be in this case the Harvest Moon. Well done, just from the words alone the scene is accurately described.

Splendid work - it is like the sun breaking through the clouds on a rainy day...a splash of glory that works its way into the soul. You are so good at
these forms and they please the senses so. Thank you for a glorious moment in my day!

What is most interesting to me, is your presentation, and haiku ushers in a parasol, and there isn't one there. That is magical writing indeed.

A beautiful work here and most enjoyable read today. :))

"Orange Fire Daisies", is short, succinct and delightfully descriptive. It was a pleasure to read and review your work again. I look forward to seeing your next post.

A thoughtful ekphrastic haiku. I had to consider what was meant by "fawn shade" and at first I was thinking that "shade" meant protection from the sun. And perhaps you wanted the shadow effect playing against the light of the "harvest moon." I would either suggest "fawn-hued" or if you really want to keep "shade," then "fawn-shade" would keep the reader from looking for the animal. Lol.

    'Fawn' is a shade of beige and 'fire' is a shade of orange. I added a note to clarify.
    and I used a dash..fawn-shade. I don't like the sound of 'hue'
    Thank you very much for your review and kind words. I appreciate your feedback.

    Okay - thanks for clarifying. I see lots of fawns here so it's easy to confuse me. May and June are the months when the does have their fawns.

A beautifully written humanity haiku Gypsy, this is an, and apart from your knowledgeable input, I always thought it had to be about nature, perhaps with a connection, well done, blessings Roy

    Kigo (season word) has categories... seasons: summer, winter, fall, spring; heavens: moon, sun, meteors, falling stars, etc; plants; animals; celebrations: new year, Christmas, Halloween, 4th of July, etc...; Humanity: work (farmer...etc), clothes (thin clothes for summer, coat for winter etc), sports: baseball season, soccer, swimming...etc; so everything is nature trees and humans. All part of nature.

    Thank you very much for your review and kind words.

You have such a talent for this type of poem. Your inspiration is beautiful and your poem is beautiful. But, then, I have yet to see any of your work that was not beautifully done.
