Haiku Saturday, Round 7
#poetryweekend is in full swing and the last time I looked steem has come up a wee bit; so things are looking up for #haikusaturday. Are you ready to peer at nature to see what it isn't but kind of is ...
Here are the rules. Because in creation, there must be structure and patterns or there is chaos that even Jackson Pollack couldn't pull off as art. Haiku is not random and chaotic; it is brief and nonsensical ... until it isn't. Then it all makes sense and aren't you clever having figured it out.
- UPVOTE and REESTEEM this post.
- Put @prydefoltz in your title and one of your tags should be #haikusaturday
- Write a haiku post and drop the link in the comments below.
- Visit at least three other haiku and comment and upvote their COMMENT here. You can also upvote their post if you got the upvote power but it is not necessary. Your votes will decide the winners.
- Wrote a haiku for another contest or challenge; feel free to post it here too. I'm not possessive.
- The liquid payout from this post (SBD) will be split up among the winners (those who received the most upvotes) and the most supportive participants, those who upvoted and commented the most.
Last weeks fluid payout worked out to roughly 0.6 SBD when the steem amount was added in. Here is the SBD payout list.

Hello Saturday poets, greetings. my entrance... https://steemit.com/photography/@corderosiete/exotic-flower-prydefoltz-haikusaturday
Love that!
Thanks friend. The hummingbirds fight over their nectar.
Wow... Awesome!
nice1 :)
Hello everyone! I ventured to create for the first time a series of haikus to compose a poetic piece in order to accompany them this day in which I had never participated. So I hope you like it and tell me your impression. I titled it: "The twilight falls asleep" and I was very excited to do it.

Very beautiful photos of the crecúspulo. Very good haiku.
Oooooh... Thank you! Do you think they are good haikus? I took great care!
Thanks teacher! I am honored by your comment. I feel more than satisfied.
nice set :)
Many thanks, @artowisdom. I love having access to your sensitivity and that you like it.
I love the imagery you create as the tired sun, blinks...
...and as the 'eyelashes' is ruined by this blinking.
Thank you! I appreciate your comment very much. It is satisfying to feel that we project so many images with so few words.
Yes, indeed I find that more satisfying than writing volumes. There is a great challenge in being a person of few words; but using them effectively.
are you sure you're not the teacher, @zeleiracordero?? ;) Awesome photos and haikus my friend. I've got some practicing to do =D
Thank you, thank you very much for the encouragement, partner!
Gorgeous composition, @zeleiracordero. Loved the metaphor. Genius!
Hi @prydefoltz, Apologies for my late entry - I got stuck in the garden today...

Blossoms and buds peek!
Colour festival erupts,
Birds singing sweetest!
Enchanting as the spring season. Excellent set of haikus, @rlt47
The change of season brings joy with the song of the birds and the flowering.
how lovely @rlt47. A journey through the year in haiku! an awesome one at that my friend. thank you =D

"Erosion"

Too beautiful! The metaphor is fascinating:
Thank you, Zeleira:)
Thank you, RLT:)
You're most welcome Pryde.
Hi, @prydefoltz.
I have a thing for yellow flowers. Colombian author Gabriel García Márquez told in an interview (almost 30 years ago) he always had them in a vase next to his typewriter for good luck--not that I believe in luck, but still :3
Thank you, Marlyn. A little luck is never a bad thing and a lot of luck is a very good thing:):):)
Good luck, always welcome ♥
Thank you, LR:):):)First order of the day should always be finding a good mood:)

Hello here is my entry thanks
https://steemit.com/haikusaturday/@luckyspark/sunflower-prydefoltz-haiku-and-photography
The sunflowers open their petals so that the sun caresses them slowly.
The sunflower is a beautiful flower. It has different symbols, but contemplating it leaves the soul imbued with the greatness of nature.
Wow thanks allot
