Love the metaphor here. Delightful! True to form and well presented. I love how the L-sounds lace all lines, phonetically, with a fine counterpoint through the consonance of F and C. Bravo.

Oh, wow. I have started to notice that when I check my message box I gravitate towards your offerings first. This was such a clever poem. I saw flood and elementary school and my dark little, pessimistic mind was traveling fast. But you turned it into a joyous thing. Turned my frown upside down. Gretchen

This was a fantastic haiku, Gypsy. You are correct, there is overflowing creek of flowing laughter, in the children. The picture was endearing. Very well done and greatly enjoyed. Blessed Be n Hugs!!!

This is a very well written haiku you have penned about the overflowing creek by the school. You used great descriptive words and very nice imagery of the children outside playing on the playground at school. Best wishes in the contest. love and blessings, Teri

A playground full of laughing children is the best medicine anybody could have or offer. Those energic little bodies are perfect for what ails the world. If everyone could act like children, I think society would be better. Thank you for sharing.

I like it! I like the "flood of laughter" is a surprising and fitting ending because you set the scene with the "overflowing creek" near the school. Very clever way to capture this setting.

Comment from Douglas Goff
This is a sweet piece. There really is nothing like the sounds of children laughing. I can remember sitting on the steps just listening to my children giggling when they were toddlers.
I hope we can come to some solutions in all
Of this violence and growing them up to quickly with the sexuality and such.
Nice work.

Thank you very much, Douglas. I know what you mean. I see pictures of very young girls with make up to make them look older. All I can think is the perverts watching.
Thank you

Best wishes!
