On the icy waters,
A symbol of elegance,
As it floats with grace.
Spreading its petals,
Iron hard yet so gentle,
Like a shining star.
As the Queen settles,
Under the moonlight shadow,
The hymn starts to sing.
This still of the night,
The lotus rests on her throne,
Such timeless beauty.

this is a good haiku my only concern is the emphasis of iron in the title. Though 'Iron Hard' is mentioned in the poem, i dont feel like iron is significant to the poem as a whole. Nothing wrong with the poem, i just suggest a reworking of the tittle
