A clever play on words in this fascinating haiku in this presentation. The artwork is an embellishment to the poem and cunningly gives I yet an impetus to the well written piece art, well done, enjoyable, blessings, Roy.

I like these capturing expressions of joy that this poem has to offer. It's very well done and the words are clear and emphasise the importance of the little moment of time we should try to notice and live it to the full. If we miss these precious moments they seldom come back in the same form or manner as the fists time. Thank you for experssing this so well.

I like your description of this poem - 'a captured moment in time.' Your line two is very aptly done to for the enhancement of your theme. Love this.

I enjoyed your poem very much. There are many good poems in the contest. I think this was one of the hardest contest to pick a poem . However, yours touched me the most and I voted for you. "a moment in time" was the line that hooked me. Good luck!

Hi pierre poote, Thank you for your review and lovely words, and for you vote . unfortunately this has been disqualified from the comtest as acoording to the 'contest committee' it does not meet haiku requirements they have told me it is 3 separate line with no interconnected grammatically lines ! so I am a little at loss and wondering how as I thought it was quite obvious but maybe I don't think like they do. I thought the love captured in the golden orb was a sunset delight and then a moment of time was the satori as it was just this. when I took the photo it really did capture this couple walking through an orb of sunset in this moment. however apparently not. so just letting you know that it is out of the race so i really appreciate your vote and sorry it is wasted. I was going to not promote it but I will still do this to see what other people think. with Cheers now from Christine😃

Excellent photo/artwork that complements your Haiku perfectly. It has the right syllable count. Sunset delight
love captured in golden orb
Satori line: a moment in time.
Best wishes for the prompt.

Thank you robina 1978 for you lovely comments for my Haiku sunset delight. however It has been disqualified from the contest because according to the 'committee' it is considered to not have a two line of grammmatical connection ! so I am a little perplexed as to how this decision was made I thought it was quite obvious however I must not think like the 'committee' I have only found out this morning about this so I was not going to promote this (as you are my second reviewer) but I still will. I am dissapointed re this decision and thank you again for your time and comments Cheers Christine😃

Beautiful sunsets are often settings for romances. You captured that scene well, well chosen words and fitting illustration. Good luck in the contest faye
