-The syllable count is good.
-A well written haiku, DD,
with a good topic.
-The imagery is effective
and creates a picture of
the drop making ripples appear.
-You effectively use them as
a symbol of change.
-The satori line is good
and has a good message.
-Good luck in the contest.

Hello DD,
This is an excellent, interesting haiku and entry for the contest
with good connection in present tense between the first two lines
One never knows where those ripples will go.
A little variation on Basho's frog.
Well done
Best wishes
Robert

Hi DD,

This is a lovely poem and a great contest entry. Reading your verse evokes imagery of the image often seen, with ripples expanding outward in water. Thanks for sharing and good luck. Jan :-)

There is a splendid, undisputable truth in your haiku.
A single drop creates ever-expanding ripples of change.

I know the rules are prone to change, but I was taught the correct title would be: haiku (one fluid drop) Perhaps I'm out of touch?

Best of luck.

Peace, Lee

    Thank you Lee for taking the time to review my haiku poem. I appreciate your comments and observation on the title. No, you are not out of touch. I unfortunately had posted incorrectly waaaay past midnight and have since corrected my error and tweaked the haiku somewhat. Thank you again. ~DD

This could be about spring or any season as we see a change there is an obvious chain of events, I enjoyed your neat Haiku wrapping it all up in so few word, love, Dolly x

This was a good write, DD. I really liked the imagery of it and the deep message under the ripples. The artwork really completed the presentation. Nice job.

    Thank you very much 24chas. Your comments are much appreciated. I am pleased it gave a good imagery (as intended) without the artwork. ~DD

So true.
What a lovely haiku.
Sort of like the butterfly
wings...they flutter,
and something across the
world is changed.
Beautiful truth!
Blessings...
