Okay from a technical standpoint, a haiku could be 5 7 5 or 3 5 3 syllables. The second and third lines could use one more syllable each... For example: joys, fears layered within me - 7 dusk plucks my soul-string. - 5 I reread the comment you left me and realized I should look at this again. Hope this helped. Keep on writing... Haiku is addictive. :-) Eliz
No matter how many syllables your poetry is lovely. And thanks for the great comment you left on My Liberty & Justice for All post -- You are smack dab on the money.
This is a beautiful haiku and I love your blog colors too... warm and inviting. ;-)
