Love the picture, the color, the words... very nice job of telling the recurring story of spring where all life rejuvenates. Very pretty and uplifting. Good luck with the contest!

I think I've read a lot of these for this contest. Yours is by far the best. I have nothing to do with votes....but if positive reviews and cheerleading helps let me run and get my Haiku Pom Poms! --Karenina

The challenge in these syllable restricted poems is the choice of words as well as the phrasing; you did great in both with a perfect picture choice to enhance the theme; thanks for sharing and good luck.

A very well-written haiku and the smelting snow works together in the seasonal rhythm into the transition from one season to the next a never ending cycle year after year.

I think this is a great entry for the haiku contest. It's well-written, and nicely worded too. Spring is nearing, and it's definitely evident that the snow and ice is beginning to melt because of all the slush! Great work on this :)

This haiku, As Winter Snow Melts, uses seventeen syllables to have us notice the new life which hastens to push the weak pieces of remaining ice off. Nice.

seasonal rhythm

The second line only has six syllables. Shouldn't it be seven? Otherwise, I think this is very nice.

This work has reached the exceptional level

I like how you ended with your third line very much. I believe in the third line in these haikus and you did very well by bringing ing it in from outside the playhouse leaving it still having meaning. A very beautiful poem, too! Outstanding! Tony
