Beautiful winter fall scene! I love your playfulness and sensitivity to the images! With a form like this it really stands out how much of a visual person you are :)!
The satori line is just pure joy: 'breathe hearts on glass "

Very, very nice. The raindrops on the cold glass windowpane...
Locked outside, implying a warm person within.
"Breathe hearts on glass" makes it for me - I don't know exactly what this means, but it captures my imagination:)
Well done!

    When I was little and couldn't go out to play because it was raining outside, I would look through the window, fogging up the glass and then I would draw hearts on the glass. Thank you for the great review and happy holidays :)

Gypsy,

You've written a really creative haiku for the contest.
I especially like your longer middle line with original
imagery and personification.

Lovely presentation as well,
Linda

After having it drummed into me that a Haiku was strict 5-7-5, now they say, not necessarily. So confusing. Excellent imagery in yours, the idea of raindrops knocking but not coming in. Nice rhyme with pane and rain. Breathe hearts on glass is great. There might be a way you could word the first line without ending it with cold. It seems like you could a noun there. Best of luck in the contest. judi

G'day my talented mate. Beautifully done and a wonderful contest entry. I have all sorts of trouble trying to make these little pieces work, so I very rarely attempt them because they stress me out lol. You have nailed it my friend. Fantastic entry to this contest and I wish you luck (You'll go close.) Cheers Fez

This is a delightful haiku. I love to hear the rain especially when I hear it hitting on something. This is a nice soothing read. Best wishes for the contest.

Hi Gypsy,

I love you Haiku poem for the contest. You did a topnotch job in writing it. the pictures you used with you poem are wonderful too. It wouldn't surprise me at all if you'd win this contest.
