That's such a magical poem. I love everything about it, especially the vocabulary you chose to use for this one. It is so enchanting and in my opinion, it's a totally deserved win.

Your picture goes great with the poem.

This haiku has so many strong words for such a small poem: "enchanting" ,,, "shire's".

Go luck in the 5-7-5 flower contest.

This work has reached the exceptional level

I love your given flowered dome to the rainbow. It should be an indescribable magical palace surrounded by well gardened aphrodisiac asters' attraction show for butterflies. Beautifully penned, fit and set within its 5/7/5 haiku format writing prompt entry,

This is a pretty little poem which meets the contest guidelines in terms of meter and subject matter. The background colors and the image you chose do much to highlight the piece.

One of the first poems I ever learned in my life, when I was very young at Catholic school in New Jersey was about Asters by Christina Rossetti. I can still recite it! Your 5-7-5 poem is lovely. The image you chose is perfect. Best of luck in the contest!

A very well-written 5-7-5 poem about the beautiful Asters that attract butterflies to the garden and bring beautiful color to the garden for all to enjoy.

I plant them on my deck in the spring. They attract all sorts of bees and butterflies. I can't wait to plant them again. Not today, tho. It's-28. It's a big improvement over yesterday. It was -44. Love the picture. Good luck in the contest.

This is a great entry for the 575 flower poem contest. Your syllable count is correct. These are beautiful flowers and you have chosen beautiful words to accompany them. Great job and thank you for sharing.
