This is a nice modern haiku with a traditional subject. This time of year, the more poems with spring imagery, the better, ha ha. We as readers would love to see those tangled cherry blossoms one more time, as perhaps the poet mentioned in line one also is reflecting back.

I enjoyed the feel and tone of this Haiku Gypsy. I can imagine I am there with the warm breeze on my face and perfumed scents surrounding while filling my mind with poetry. I'm sure the poet is imagining the last Haiku they dreamed of and letting the words linger around them in the moment.
I sure hope we never see the last of your Haiku's Gypsy!

Thank you for explaining the forms of Haiku poetry. This type of poem does not rhyme, that's why it is so fun to write. Like the words in this poem, cherry blossoms are Washington D.C.'s beauty, too.

The poet may be no more, but his or her words will last forever and will forever have an impact on those who read. Thank you for sharing this Haiku with us. You are so talented, I am envious.

I'm so glad that you are promoting your poems more! I like the feel of this haiku. Perhaps the poet is no more but the writing of the last haiku is revived with spring and the new life of the cherry blossoms.

    I got 100 fanstory dollars for ending in 4th place. I already have two awards so I don't need anyone. It's nice to have money (*÷*)

    Thank you very much for taking the time to read and review my poem. Love you. Marival ❤️

I can picture you sitting under the cherry tree as you pen this (and other) haikus, dappled sunlight illuminating your words and warming your spirit. Your poem created strong visual impacts of scene. Kate xx

This is beautiful poem about poem's last Haiku and the cherry blossoms. The presentation is very good as usual. I have one question: why are you using 5/7/7=19 syallbles?

Well done.

reply by the author on 10-Jan-2023
    I used 19 syllables because katauta has a 5/7/7 syllables count. It's a katauta about a last haiku.

    Rules
    A katauta is an unrhymed three-line poem the following syllable counts: 5/7/7.
