I like that this poem could mean so many different things with your metaphors and beautiful imageryi think everyone will understand it differently. for me i see someone who is facing death and the stage is heaven, and the colour of their hair is changing and flashing different colours, as different aspects of his/her life is flashing in front of him/her. id love to know if im right or what its actually about?

The metaphoric interplay is so vivid that the poem is so short but the essence has proven its compactness and meaningfulness...10

I must admit that I don't understand this. I think part of the problem for us with Haiku is that, as we are a worldwide community, it can be tricky to understand seasonal references that relate to a part of the world with whose climate, flora and fauna we are unfamiliar.

A short three liners, open to mass interpretation, but it lacks the intensity, unlike the longer version writes.Anyway thats poetry, some were written in such a way.Good job L.P.Alex!
