Oh this is such a beautiful haiku poem, Marival. What a beautiful imagery you evoked in so few words. But that of course is the art about haiku. Un abrazo. Ulla xx

for some reason i wanted to put "A" in the third line (to see a lake)
but that could be just me lol

anyway, a great haiku with cool imagery and a starry lake pic...

After reading your poem, I started to wonder, how many people honestly take the time to go outside and look at the beautiful night sky. I am betting not as many as should. I think everybody should. Just take a breath of fresh air and enjoy the stars. I think the world would be a better place. Sorry, my ADD kicked in again. I enjoyed your wonderful presentation.

That must be gorgeous to see the "lake full of stars." You always help us to see reflections without spelling out that it is a reflection. Great presentation with fabulous pictures!

I loved the imagery of lake and it's reflection of the indigo night sky dotted with diamond like stars. This poem described a relaxing moment when you become one with the environment. Great poem. Beautifully written. Gretchen

M.,
You are a master of font colors w/back-grounds.I wish I had 1/25th of the magic.

Your images are always hypnotic, too. It combines to move your poetry to next level.

clear summer night
I lean on the veranda*s rail
to see the lake full of stars

Love a lot of what is revealed. Q: were you taught it is okay for the poet to appear in their piece? ("I lean...")

May want to dbl-check syllable-count, too.

Beautiful presentation! Thank you!

This is amazing and enchanting. I had the pleasure of seeing a similar sight once years ago, as we sat on the veranda at the bottom of a valley. It was breathtaking, as this one is, and tge way you have expressed it. Beautiful.

Your Haiku presents a lovely picture of a summer night and a woman alone staring at the stars reflected in a lake. She is alone and missing someone or she is wishing on those stars for someone to love.
The artwork is fantastic. I love it.

I was lure into reading this Haiku by your fantastic visual display. It made your words pop out and made me realize the importance of visual display in poetry writing. Thanks for sharing, Gypsy.
