Dreams do come true... You must be desperate for a Disney Vacation. I am glad you won the contest. Good artwork choice. Nice spiritual poem. Great work :)

    Thank you so much, Marilyn, for sharing my sunset haiku. I was so fortunate to find a picture that caused the poem to write itself. Rod

Hello mystery writer. The poem certainly meets all the requirements for a true haiku poem. I like the message because it says that even in our failure God reminds us that there's always tomorrow. Good luck in the contest. Robert

You have made excellent use of all of your syllables in this lovely poem that gives credit where credit is due. The creator of that sunset will also get you through hard times, if you only ask.

After the sunset and when the dreams fade, there is sunrise, and God's golden presence of sunrise reminds us, there is always tomorrow; well said, well done.

That's a wonderful way to look at a sunset, as God's reminder that there is always a tomorrow which may bring all the necessary changes to fix today's problems. Very well put.
All the best in the contest.
