Comment from Theodore McDowell
Beautiful haiku showing the brief stunning aspect of haiku and a nod to its classical roots in seasons. It made me just write a haiku echoing into this lovely poem with the lingering aspect of a haiku

Thank you so much, Tim. I enjoyed reading your haiku as well and love the natural setting you chose.

Comment from Janice Canerdy
This is such a clever, entertaining poem. I say clever because of your method of working in the concept of season. And, yes, many haiku are poetic, but it's not always easy (for me) to wax poetic with only seventeen syllables. :-)

Thank you Janice... glad you caught the 'tongue in cheek' humor... a few folks did not ;). Hugs!

Comment from Seshadri_Sreenivasan
Absolutely. This is a delightful way of putting it across. One needs to be really very sensitive and skilful to condense and express so much of life's philosophy in a few words. Thanks for sharing!

Thank you very much Sesha! Short poems are very challenging to me and I always struggle with the satori. Glad you liked it.

Comment from Jesse James Doty
I can't help but feel, that this brief haiku you've written is an easy way to post. The title, the picture with a haiku in it, and the one mentioning a season are all ways to qualify for haiku status yet miss an important issue that needs to be addressed. Every true haiku tells a story. And yours doesn't seem to have that aha moment. I hope you don't mind an honest review. Please, tell me if you do mind.
Have a wonderful Sunday,
Jesse

Thank you Jesse. I always love to read your point of view about my writing. I was striving for humor, but I guess it fell flat... 'briefly poetic' was supposed to be a play on words... but I may go back and change it. Thanks again.

This review is aimed more at the picture than at your writing.
haiku is mostly
about nature, not haiku -
all year round
The trouble with reviewing using the haiku technique is you get hammered for not using enough characters. Lol

Thank you for your review on the art... LOL... I was trying to be funny, but I think it fell flat... the satori "briefly poetic" does not seem to capture 'aha'.. :). I always appreciate your perceptions, Jim. :)

Comment from Gee
Nice.
I a friend of my is starting to write Haiku's.
To me, I can't come up with anything good with so little syllables.
This is a nice satori with the "aha". Well done
Thanks for sharing
