Thank you for your very positive comments.
Comment from Oatmeal
You did a wonderful job with this challenge. The flow was very nice. The theme was good. Very enchanted atmosphere, non-judgmental and thought provoking. Full of vivid images. The artwork complemented your poem.
There was no SPAG, no typos, no room for improvement.
I look forward to seeing you again.
Love you,
Oatmeal

Thank you for such a thorough and complimentary review.
Comment from Dean Kuch
Better fire in the sky than spreading like wildfire (please excuse the pun) on the ground.
Of course, there was once a science fiction movie titled 'Fire in the Sky' about aliens who abduct a lumberjack from an Oregon logging crew, subject every orifice in his body to probing and tests, then release him.
I think he would have much preferred fire on the ground instead.
By my count (and most likely yours too), I counted 17 syllables used to compose this haiku. That's within the limits stipulated by the form.
Nicely presented.
Best of luck!

This is a fine entry for the haiku contest on fire
Exact syllables to the 5-7-5 form of haiku
and excellent imagery of the tree silhouettes/sunset
The three lines appear to be connected,
but I don't know if that is a problem
as almost anything goes in haiku on FS
A solid satori third line works well
Good luck in the contest

A very well-written haiku. A red firy sunset color the sky, the background for silhouetted trees. A beautiful colorful scene to remember and enjoy. Good luck with the contest.

Hello my friend,
si/lhou/ettes of trees
back/lit by fla/ming sun/set
keep fire in the sky .............................good syllable count
technically, the sun is not a fire but I get what you mean.

Comment from Alcreator Litt Dear
This speaks a beautiful, colourful and eternal view of flaming sunset at the back of the silhouettes of trees as seen upto the horizon in the west and gives a fire view in the sky; I liked.

thank you for sharing your haiku for this contest. In spite of the limited syllable count, you've given us a great description of a kind of fire - the one at the end of the day in the sunset. Good luck in the contest,
