Yours is a nicely written haiku, Loanna. I very much like the imagery of your first two lines and the fun following satori.

Your accompanying artwork is beautiful and a good enhancement for your words.

Thank you for sharing! Alana

Before long, walking on water will turn to struggling in the water.

But luckily with a change of heart and a change of plan, a boat is a good option. Short of wanting for air transport, a boat ride seems the logical way to leave.

When one must walk on water to leave a bad situation, it is best that the water is in its icy State. This is very well written with a smooth flow of words.

I'll restrain the urge to say "Duh." The absolute common sense of your haiku in unmistakable. Since it is a true five seven five-excellent.

A boat is better unless you have great, unfailing faith in Jesus:) Great satori line. perfect haiku for the contest - good luck.

Not typically the sort of thing you would imagine unless you were very close to Jesus and He invited you to walk by faith.
Hardly but kind of nice to think about it that way.

Your poem is in excellent 5/7/5 syllable count
good alliteration in walk on water and in better with a boat
good humor and entertaining visuals
I am sitting here laughing as I visualize somebody's attempt to walk on water before sinking and wishing for that boat LOL :-) Brooke

good luck in the contest

your syllable count spot on

your few words portray well if one wants to walk from the island on foot they will have to walk on water better by boat

cleverly done

good visual

This is funny. It sparked my imagination and made me wonder what it would be like to try and walk away from an island. Great job.
