Sophy, haikus are something I have not put my hand to as yet, not for any other reason than I think they are so difficult to do well (and I always would write too long anyway lol!!) When done to this standard those three little lines say a thousand words. I am not sure why it is suggested to put in more stanzas on something that was never meant to be lengthened! This for me paints a picture that you should take in for a moment and explore. A wonderful sentiment and so cleverly put!! A haiku worth 5 *s and for me a nomination! Great job :)
Thanks for your comments about my poem A Wizened Rose.This is the first Haiku I learned to write last year and that was a cold winter in Beijing,China and the Rose on my desk I appreciated its beauty only three days and then it was wizened with flower on the trunk for a long time and its fragrance was always there. One day I suddenly wrote these words without thinking

Maybe add some more words stanzas.

Hi Sophy,
I think it would be really amazing if you could write 3 stanzas using Haiku form all on the same subject.

Thanks Ron,

Thank you again !
