Comment from Aries Poet
Loved your 3 line poem! The daffodil is such a vibrant flower that beckons in spring and if it could speak it would be a loud "Wake up its, Spring and I am here in my glorious color"

Comment from RodG
I really like how you employ CONTRASTS in this short three-liner. The daffodil is literally silent, but its "vibrant color" is loud. A great metaphor chosen for your closing line. Rod

Comment from rama devi
Perfect metaphor, as the tulip does look like a megaphone. Love your satori. Love the irony of silent singing. Excellent haiku style, delivery, presentaiton, tone and form. Superb phonetics with S and L sounds. Great word economy. No nits. A strong entry! Good luck!
Warmly, rd

Comment from Kelly Grim
I really like this! The daffodil as nature's megaphone singing in loud color... that's just a great metaphor! The juxtaposition of silent in the first line and sings in the second...Well done entry for this contest!

Comment from Pantygynt
I just loved this. It reminded me of my ear trumpet tanka posted 12th August. Do you remember it? This is what you wrote in review:
'Pantygynt, yes wouldn't that be fantastic. Nature lending us a helping hand in every deficit we have to suffer. I like the idea of a daffodil foghorn to enhance hearing. A fun tanka poem full of imagination. ~DD'
And this was was my take on the plant:
with daffodil's help
damaged ear hears gold music
last trump approaches
as audibility fades
technology prolongs life
Don't we have fun on FanStory? History repeats. First came the tanka and the haiky was created from it. Together we would be invincible. Lol.

Pantygynt, thank you for your enthusiastic review. I didn't have your tanka poem in mind when I wrote this piece so can't say my 5-7-5 was created from it but can see the connection - trumpet and megaphone. I was close to writing about a weed so I am glad I chose the beautiful daffodil. Yes, I think together we would be invincible :-) ~DD
