Your poem paints a beautiful picture. I enjoy the image of the flower turning towards the hummingbird. It's a win-win situation! Good choice of picture, too. Well done.

Your words describe the beautiful lily as if it is a live character. I like how the flower is responding to the robin's song. Your poem creates a vivid scene of nature and takes the reader out into the natural world.

What a beautiful 5-7-5 poem. You have captured the beauty of the purple lily. I was unaware that lilies come in purple. June is a great month for rebirth of nature.

Great job and good luck in the contest.

Cecilia

Beautifully written haiku. The visual is perfect and I love the the rendition of the purple lily facing forward to hear the robin's song. Best for the contest and thanks for sharing.

That is lovely artwork. There are some great artists on FanArtReview, including avmurray. Great imagery of the hopeful lily turning to hear the robin. I think I'd prefer "sing" to "song" in the last line. Maybe robin's song. Something to consider. Beautiful presentation, and good luck in the contest. judi

How lovely! This 5-7-5 poem evokes such beautiful imagery --a gorgeous lily, the song of a robin... But even more, your use of the month's name (June) aids the reader's imagination = warm sunshine and brezes!
