Hello anonymous
Good entry for the Write a Nature 5-7-5 writing prompt contest. Good syllable count and connection between lines. The presentation is nice.
I like your haiku best so far, you will probably get my vote.

Water is the bringer of life and it starts with the ground beneath our feet. From that all life stems and we should learn to appreciate that more and not take it for granted.

Fantastic description that gives a great sensory experience of what nature feels like when it rains.
The word "saturates" may work better than saturate.

It was gorgeous. The most amazing imagery and visuals; you paint a vivid picture in a reader's mind. Your artistic presentation and artwork deserve a prize - it's fabulous!
My only comment is - this is supposed to be a Haiku - and a Haiku is comprised of two grammatically interconnected lines of concrete imagery, and a Satori (a moment of insight in the third line. Your whole haiku sounds like one line. I think, you should clearly separate the satori in the third line from lines one and two - making it stand on its own.
A very easy fix:
rains saturate earth
penetrating depths within ~
new life created

Your poem is great for the 5-7-5 nature contest. I love the rain and the idea that the earth is being nourished and cared for. Best of luck to you in the contest.

This is a beautiful haiku poem. Rains saturate earth penetrating depths within creating new life. Portrays how rain nourishes the earth to create new life. Nicely done. Beautiful photo of leaves with raindrops.
