Katiemae,

Congrats on winning the Haiku Poetry Contest. This is a brilliantly written Haiku that speaks to the delicate nature of clouds and the power of a child's imagination. The final line is perfect.

All the best,

Eugene

One of my fondest memories as a child was doing as you did...lie in the grass and watch cloud formations. Your poem beautifully describes the look and movement of clouds in the sky. Your background color selection and words provide a perfect presentation. Best wishes in the contest.

I was always looking at the sky as a kid whether is was daytime clouds or nighttime stars.
Thanks so much for reviewing.

If I have not told you yet, I have recently published a book called the "The Interloper (and other stories in prose and poetry) " by Joan Pechter.
It is available on Amazon.com. If I have already, I am sorry for the repeat.

I don't comment on very many of the very short poems because there are so few words on which to comment, but this one is special for your wonderful metaphor of the sky.

I really liked your haiku for the contest. You got the syllable counts right, and the image you supplied complemented the poem well. I liked the last line/title. Thank you for sharing, and best wishes to you.

Hi Katie. You did a fine job writing this verse and I admire the execution of this particular form. I absolutely love your satori... "origami sky". It is so true that the cloud shapes resemble that art form. I wish you luck!

This is a cool idea in a haiku. I like your last line very much. I expect this will attract a lot of attention in the haiku contest. Nice share and presentation. Maybe 'Origami Sky' could be the title of an origami book someday that you write.

I still study cloud formations in my old age, just as I did as a child. Those dreams are hard to kill. What a wonderfully written poem. Good luck in the contest!
Have a great day, and God bless.
