This reverse haiku conveys beautiful imagery and emotion.

The syllable and line count requirements have been met, along with the rhyme.

I wish you luck in the contest.

Overall an integrated presentation- illustration and text combine well! The use of colour here is natural, rather than 'forced'. There is a sense of the mystical here.

This haiku, Hope for 2023, presented with a 5-7-5 formatting, shows that the burdens of the previous life, surrendered at dawn of January 1st, are gone and the new has arrived. Nice.

Your line end rhymes are spot on, and that plus the colours gives an interesting read. BUT, the prompt says the syllable count should be 7-5-7, wheareas I seem to see the classical 5-7-5. Hope you'll be able to fix this. Kate xx
