This is a beautiful haiku, I love the imagery. A liquid sky is a great way to describe it, it leaves a lot to the imagination while also offering a powerful image of the scene. Thanks for sharing this and have a great day

This is lovely imagery, painting a nice picture with your words. The artwork fits your words so well. I like the sea of mist and liquid sky. Best wishes in the Haiku contest. Blessings. Carol

Ah, these few words speak volume and the artwork really gives life to your poem. Well written and gives the reader a since of calm. All I need now is a cup of coffee.

Your words create a painting that is alive. "Adrift in a sea of mist' and neath a liquid sky" are two lines that make nature come alive. The reader can feel a new day beginning. Excellent use of words and a smooth flow of lines.

Wow (I literally said that when I read this) this piece is beautiful all around. I love when the words and the artwork/photography just blend so perfectly together. Did you have the picture first and write the haiku to match? Not that it matters, but that's one of my favorite thing to do...write a poem about a picture. Well done and good luck!
