playinaround,

This is a powerful haiku! Love the alliteration in your first line,
the imagery and energy in your second line...Fantastic satori too!
Very nice photo and presentation...(it might be nice to have your
font larger)

Just outstanding!
Linda

    Thank you Linda... So nice to get a review!! For some reason, the committee threw my poem out... I am so glad you liked it. Thank you for stopping by!!

    Sorry to hear that...do you know why? I just looked to see if I could find the contest and rules.

    I had that happen on the art site....my red pointsettia was not red enough? You can guess I did not like that.

The contest rules state -short/long/short format
-two grammatically interconnected lines of concrete imagery (paints mental image)
-satori line or aha-moment (can be the first or last line)

your entry has long/short/long format, the first two lines are not grammatically interconnected and there is no satori line.

I like this picture with your haiku. The horse does look like he has been excited. Very well done. Good luck on the contest. Lightening can light up the night like it is day, but it only stays for a few seconds. Your haiku seems tells the story of a thunder storm.
I couldn't see any way to improve your haiku.
Thanks for sharing.

Wow. You said so much with such few words. It is rare that I stumble upon a haiku of this caliber. Top notch poetry. If I had a six star left you would have it.
