This is nice. These little poems are wonderful for cutting away all the chaff we see in some poems. They can be difficult. I bang my head on the table doing one sometimes. I am still not through moving.I will be looking in from time to time until I am settled. I miss being here and your friendship. Good work here. Karen

Thank you for reviewing my poem and giving me the five stars.
It is always sad when you pass a ghost town like Centralia, PA or a town and see factories that are on the verge of closing. In my area alone, there are lots of closed Malls and businesses.

Businesses that cared more about profit than people and more about growing a bigger and bigger company than helping the community caused this. And until this changes, more small towns will go belly up. Karen

A nicely worded 5-7-5 poem which gives a true statement. Thoughts that we entertained yesterday still remain with us today and can be used for new ideas to be useful even in the future.

My brain no longer can do much brain storming anymore, but I make feeble attempts. Not in short Haiku's though. You have done marvellous with this Haiku. Best wishes in the contest.

Well spoken, deserving a six not having any, finding its features detailing precise and captivating to its reader interests. I thought it was great able to grip ones attention. All in my opinion of this work.

This is like writing a poem about writing a poem. Brainstorming about brainstorming ...I cant find any criticism for this simple, straightforward Haiku. May your future thoughts continue to be fruitful ones.

You've described the process perfectly, ideas of today lead to future technology. This entire world is built on hopes, dreams, and prayers. The poem is well-written, your great word choice brings your message across loud and clear, great job.

Nicely done! I think man will always be thinking up new ways and new approaches and new ideas! I have always loved the word brainstorming. The pic is perfect... for me it brings to mind industrial and technologically advance, a little bit of the past (like your first line) and shows just how far we've come!

I really like the haiku you have written. It paints a picture of old thoughts coming back into new ideas, and the title is perfect. I really enjoyed reading.

Although this does not have the connection with nature and the seasonal references so many believe to be essential it does have an essentially Japanese flavour. There are those here as well who say that capital letters are a no-no with these because the Japanese do not have capital letters, but we are writing in English.

I think you have made a great start with this.
