A wonderful image and an excellent Haiku to accompany it. Your third line is very clever - a great satori line. I'm sure this one will do well! Sending you very best wishes.

I do hate spiders but I do admire their artistic webs. Great photo and a very good descriptive Haiku. Love the final line
Veiled threat on display
Good luck in the contest.

Your choice for an accompanying picture could not have been better. The glistening droplets and the veiled threat were elegant in their way. I liked that you didn't go cutsie on this. You gave an ominous point but did it with class. Did you understand that? Lol. Anyway, I enjoyed your poem.

Much like life we walk blind until divine intervention occurs like dewdrops" Danger Ahead. Where are the warning signs? In our heads. Listen. The still small voice talks endlessly but we must be in tune with it.

This is a wonderful Haiku for the contest, Faith. The cautionary word within is a nice finish. Sending you my best today as always and best wishes for the upcoming contest,

Your haiku read well, Faith. Good job on its style. I
enjoyed reading it. The picture was a perfect complement
to your well-chosen words. I liked the satori.
Thanks for sharing and best wishes, Jan

You found a dazzling illustration of a spider's web--it is the perfect backdrop for the poem. Despite the beauty of spider webs from a viewing perspective, I have never heard of anyone who enjoys walking into them. Best wishes.

I have read a lot of entries for this Haiku Poem Contest, and this one stands out because of the different aspects of nature you bring into play, and the way you hit us successively with the different faces of the spider's web. You highlight how often danger lurks behind a mask of beauty. Kate xx

This work has reached the exceptional level

I loved the last line as this invisible web is now jewelled with pearls and the threat is visible to the world, fine words, an ambient Haiku for the contest, much enjoyed, love Dolly x
