Such a beautiful 'follow - on' here, June.... I like the little bit of rhyme from then to this you've made so seamlessly flow! :) ;) Bring on the blossoms (not a fan of the snow - lol!) ;) Yvette

Hello, June,

Thank you very much for your chapter. It's beautiful and fits in well. Good syllable count and connection between lines. I love the presentation.

Thank you for adding your 5-7-5 to Gypsy Blue Rose's renga book. The picture you selected matches perfectly. I liked your focus on "apple blossom time". Cheers- Joan

June,
Our neighborhood had one beautiful apple tree with awesome blossoms.
The photo is a very good facsimile of an apple orchard in spring. Your haiku is excellent and the second, line, especially paints a beautiful image of these trees.
Good work, June.
Have a nice day.
Cindy

June,

This might be just a 5-7-5 verse for this renga, but it feels like a well penned Haiku. Do like how your snowy imagery contrasts with the apple blossoms. Your selected artwork is perfectly matched with your poem.

Mark

This 5-7-5, Pink and White Petals, a part of the ever-growing renga, has the right set up and brings our thoughts to the white, cushioned, orchard floor after apple blossoms fall. Nice.

Beautiful writing a great contest entry. Visual is very pretty . Pink and white petals cover trees instead of snow. Apple blossom time. I like the background colour you used for your poem as well.

A very well-written 5-7-5 addition the multi-author Renga book. The white and pink blossoms that cover the trees instead of snow flakes mean it is time for apple trees to blossom.
