Now this is a powerful haiku. winter morning mist -- this is a great opener with the alliterations. covers melancholic trees -- that is a line that connects and describes the moment. That is a powerful word, melancholic. all life never ends -- nice satire. Many believers think that life will never end on earth, because Jesus will set up heaven on earth for a thousand years. This is a great looking poem and a strong contender in this fog --mist... contest. Good luck!

I'm a little wacky. Most people are not getting published by a publisher from here, so, may as well be nice. We are all in the same boat and seeking fame. i try to be helpful and considerate of people. Keep writing and I will review.

Your haiku is nice and you do have the word mist in it.

You have the correct amount of syllables.

Good luck with your haiku.

Average

I liked the first reading of this but then when I read this again, I felt that there was potential to have the third line capture more about the "melancholic" in the second line. So I am left a bit confused, though in terms of following the rules of the structure of Haiku, this does do well.

Your poem literally gave me chills! The frigid picture of the coniferous forest set the mood, and the blue background served as a cool background for the white as snow words. Very clever using EVERgreen trees to portray "all life never ends". I love your haiku! Good luck in the contest; I'm sure you will do very well!

This haiku pictures a haunting image of the morning mist in winter, giving even the trees a melancholy look. Good luck to you in the contest, Jeanie Mercer

this is a great haiku, very philosophical, which is what I think of when it comes to japaneese culture. the last line could mean so much . good luck in the contest.

All life never ends is a fitting last line that is positive and shows the strength of nature. Excellent use of words to create a picture of nature. Your poem shows the morning mist as a character.

winter morning mist

all life never ends

I love the melancholy, but the positive ending is perfect. All life never does end, it changes.
Excellent.
