Ulla, I love the sensuality of your poem. You describe a hot passion that is consumed by a summer folly that never lasts. Your words are well chosen to convey a mood and a message. Thank you for sharing, and also for inspiring me to get back to writing haiku after I received my copies of Haiku Anthology yesterday!

Hi Andre, thank you so much. I'm so glad you liked it. I still haven't got my copies. I would love to have it but will probably have to wait until it's released in Europe and pay the full price. A shame. But never mind. All the best. Ulla:)))

Well done, Ulla. Your words present an image of a passionate love affair that doesn't last. Something that happens a lot I'm afraid. I guess it is typical of a summer love, Giddy

Enjoy the ride.

This is very well written with a smooth flow of words, making for a good read.

hot passion
is consummed in their soulful dance
summer's folly

A clever use of words in this short piece, Ulla - you have more patience than me - I find writing such a short poem much harder than writing a lengthy one.

Thanks a lot, Margaret. I just wouldn't know how to write a lengthy poem. I don't know the first thing about meter and what else. But I admit. I am fascinated with the haiku. I've been to Japan a lot, and I can see how the form fits in with their culture. Thanks again. All the best. Ulla:)))

This is a wonderful Haiku poem.
Which describes the scene with such imagery.
The alliteration is fantastic which strengthens your words
and a lovely picture to accompany

You've written a good poem.
It contains three lines with a syllable count of 3-8-4
--I've never written a 3-8-4 so I'll have to see if I can.
The image shown supports the poem. The background goes well with the art and color of font chosen.
Thanks for sharing your Haiku.
Good luck with your future writing.
-Nicole-

Spell Check: In the second line, I think the word 'consummed' should be spelled 'consumed'- Just my opinion.
