A very well-written 5-7-5 poem about the rough night if storms until the dark waters get kissed by the morning sunlight to reflect a new path.

And the same thing applies in life if we take the time to look. A fine poem and double meaning here that runs deep. Sending you my best today as always, and best wishes for the contest, dear June.

June,
I'm thinking you can take this poem literally, as is, or you can use these words symbolically. After a time of trial in life, the sun's light is God's light guiding the narrator on another path. Excellent work, June.
A sweet poem of hope.
Blessings,
Cindy

I love the dawn of beginnings and the mercy and a new day, and God communicates His exuberance. Until day's decline, and another celebration, well done, blessings, Roy

This appears such an artistic rendering that I didnt expect the words to be as beautiful as the picture. But I was wrong. Your words make me imagine how the water must feel. It's happy for a fresh new day. The sun is shining and the past has gone and a new path is ready to be trod. This is lovely:)

Hello June,
I really like your haiku. The imagery is beautiful. The truth in nature is reflected in human nature as everything really does seem so much better in the light of a new day.
Good luck in the contest.
Best wishes, Debra :)

A duality of emotions touched upon here and so effectively in this very short format of the 5-7-5 -language reflecting the theme 'kissed by sunlight' and 'rough night '
