Excellent entry for The World's Shortest Haiku writing promptContest.

I like the presentation too. Concrete images easy to visualize.

Good syllables count and connection between lines.

Good luck in the contest.

This haiku, Robin, has the proper formatting and creates the scene whetre this small bird chimes the day in as its distinctive voice carries across the woods and wakes the world.

Robins are one of the first birds to sing at dawn and he anticipates the sun rise and sings for us. It is a very special moment. I enjoyed your fine words, good luck with the contest, love Dolly x

I got the pun. So the robin sings at dawn's sun beams and the sun beams at the sound. Lovely play on words and an excellent little haiku. Good luck in the competition.

This is so cute! I kept looking at the robin's speak expecting to hear the singing expressed so evocatively in your neat haiku. Thanks for sharing and good luck! Debbie

With only 7 syllables, this is sure to be one of the shortest in the contest - well done!
Nice play on words at the end and a bright, sunny background/border to highlight the words and the robin pic.
I wish you well in the contest

This is the best one I've seen so far in this contest, mystery poet. I like your satori line the best. Very concise, clever, beautifully penned and presented.

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

This is a wonderful Haiku. I learned that two Haiku is still Haiku as the plural has no 's'. Thought I would share.

Anyhoo, the double meaning of the last word really sends this one over the fence. Nice work!

Thank for the the review and advice. I gave it some thought, but that is the first time I have heard of this. I think I'll leave it as is, as I have been writing haiku for years, but haiku can be mysterious and challenging. Love that you liked the last line - it's my favorite too.

I liked your short haiku. I especially love the way you used the tiny picture and small font to make the haiku seem even smaller. Thanks for sharing, and best wishes to you.
