Bill,
This shows that dawn puts the yesterday in the past for good and a new chance begins. The artwork inspires hope and looks like she is starting to embrace the new day.
Congrats on the honorable mention in the contest.
Keep writing and stay healthy
Joan

A birth and a death. Elation and melancholy. Philosophical. Best of luck in the contest Bill, your poem is perfectly expressed. The photo is also a good choice.

Stellar offering in 5-7-5 form. This takes flight, and shapes the dawn's birth anew. Aptly illustrated too.

Sending you my best today as always and best wishes for the upcoming contest, dear Bill.

So true, so true. Although some wish it were not so. I fear that if I could go back to yesterday I might well make an even worse mistake given another chance at it. I will join in with Elsa and just let it go, let it go.

    If I could go back I?d tell my dad that I will take a loan from him.

A most philosophical point of view written with great brevity. The starting point of a new day means the death of the last.

I think this a superb entry into this contest, and I wish you great luck with the Committee. :)

Hi Bill,

Wow, this is quite lovely! Your packed words so full of wisdom and worth stated that we cannot get back yesterday. Kind of like, when a new day is peeled from yesterday to become today. So be careful what you do today as it goes down in your history to haunt or inspire your todays as they come.

Hard to explain what your haiku meant to me, forgive me if I butchered this beautiful poem :-)
