Lemon zest at dawn... I thought the last curtain call was a strong satori but this line just blows that away!!! Love it Brooke!!! This is a marvelous haiku!

This union is so apparent when
you look at the wonderful picture
and the descriptive words within
your Haiku Brooke. The blend of
this appears to explode and
radiate both externally and internally
too...

well written haiku, a lot to say in few words, flowing nice, smoothly, while the sun goes down with lemon essence, good job, I liked it...

Haiku is such a wonderful form, and you have captured the beauty of its structure in your lines.
I love your satori.... it ties it all together into one big burst of zest.
Well done.
