This is a well-crafted poem. Your poem reads and flows well. Your 5-7-5 syllable count is on point for this contest. Each line connects well with the next. Very nice poem.

You created a beautiful picture with your words. It reminds me of childhood when troubles were few, and we took pleasure in simple things. You should do very well in the contest. Great job.

This was so relaxing and visual! It immediately took me back to those days at the lake. As a matter of fact your writing made my day. I am so ready for spring. Great nature haiku!

The action points in your nature haiku are very interesting. The first and third line are just so peaceful, relaxing, lazy on a summer day. And the second line zips through like the skipping stones you wrote about. I guess what I'm trying to say is the feel of the words you used are also accurate to the story you're telling! Nicely done!

A lovely nature Haiku making good use of limited words and creating very descriptive images with words. If I could suggest adding anything it would be to say that a picture would add even more to the poem and I am sure you could find a free image to use that perfectly represents the poem. Nicely written.

Ciao!

Your poem brought back sweet memories of when I lived near the lake side and often skimmed stones.

I like your closing line : fallen leaves which suggests it's on a lazy autumn day .

I adore autumn!

PS: Shame no artwork to enjoy though your words alone were very impactful .

That's called well penned poetry !

Your Nature 5-7-5 gives us a vivid picture of a man standing at the edge of a peaceful lake skimming stones across the water full of floating leaves. Very nice use of alliteration to create a serene mood. Rod
