Excellent

This haiku couldn't be a better response to this prompt, in my opinion. I'm not sure that God's covenant is "concrete" imagery, but regardless, the words you chose ring with truth and beauty. A lovely entry!

Very good poem about the promise the Lord made to never again flood the earth. No one can take away God message given in the form of a rainbow.

Great poem for the contest. You followed the prompt except for the "no author's notes". Don't see what it hurts to thank a person for their use of art.

Blessings, LaVonne

Thanks so much for your review, and reminder for thanking for use of the artwork. I really thought that I had. Thanks so much for bringing this to my attention. Blessings.....................................

You did. But the rules say no authors notes. What I was saying is why a rule where you can't thank someone for the use of their art. Have a great day. LaVonne

Well the reminder
That the rainbow comes
From God as a promise
Never to destroy all again

The count is less than the 17
Not in the norm it seems
5-6-4 May find trouble
In the voting score

I like your poem, it has the right amount of syllables and a short/long/short format. The first two lines are interconnected and the third line is a satori for reflection and observation. I think you did a good job and I wish you good luck in the contest.

I like the picture of the ark in the storm. The dark blue background with the light blue writing is a nice touch. The poem was well thought out and very well written. Thank you for sharing and good luck in the contest.

What a powerful insight and piece! This challenges the thought of a deteriorating world that may have lost sight to what is beautiful? I love haiku, it gives a small taste of thoughts that reveal a multitude of meaning. You accomplished this well with just the right choice of words.

Forty days of rain would make quite a rainbow - lol. Great haiku especially the satori. Good luck in the contest.

I think you do a wonderful job with this poem. I've never heard of a rainbow being used in this way. It's creative and you say so much with just three lines.
