Not only a great 5-7-5 poem in perfect form but also a great haiku with a wonderful satori line. Good luck in the contest.

A time of delight. "Early morning." That is a beautiful shot of an early morning sunrise on the Murray River at Renmark. Your poem tells the story well. Good job.

A nice little poem, with a well selected photo. It evokes the hope that comes with every new day. The risk with poetry that must adhere to a specific structure, i.e. 5-7-5, is that the structure can deter a more profound message and imagery that evokes strong emotion. You did what you could with what you had to work with. on the whole, well done.

That picture is awesome! I wish when I walked outside in the morning, that's what I would see :)

Your poem is perfect for the contest. Syllable count is right on point.
I myself am an early riser, no matter what time I go to bed, I always wake up early.

I want to get my day started. Nice job and good luck in the contest

What a well written poem. You followed the 5-7-5 and syllable count perfectly.
It is refreshing to read positive, and "happy" poems. Thank you for sharing and good luck in the contest.

Yes, with each and every sunrise a brand new day dawns. With it comes hope, if we allow it.

Lovely 5-7-5, in great form. Good message conveyed; clear, concise and direct...

Good luck! ~Dean

this was a very inspiring little poem and the picture complemented it perfectly. i do agree and the same can be said fro a sunset, very soothing for one who has had a troubled day.

Ah yes, we share that. The early mornings are the best. In the spring it's early songs of the birds that I love so much. Great piece - good luck in the contest.

5-7-5 poetry either works or it doesn't its not my favourite poetry i will be honest but on saying that..along with the accompanying beautiful image i think you 3 lines work a treat succinct yet long enough to share a moment , a mood a time

thanks for sharing

A wonderful 5-7-5 with a strong emotional appeal to the hope dawn brings. One suggestion. To create seven syllables in the second line, write it like this,

new hope that is dawning's hold

This may not be the best suggestion. Because of your contraction of "that's" your line only has six syllables and will be disqualified from the contest. If you fix this, your poem has a greater chance in the contest. Thank you for sharing.
