Impending Darkness - Haiku Poem by Rose Marie Juan-austin
Impending Darkness - Haiku
The extreme storm waves
Aim to sweep the running clouds
And the lone sparrow.

Congratulations, Rose Marie. Today this magnificent Haiku is judged as Rank # 25 in the list of Best Poems of Members, featured on PoemHunter.
Unnikrishnan, this loveliest Haiku and very sad brevity is TODAY on number 19 on the Best Member Poems List of Member Poets. That changes each day, methinks
the darkness will be swept away by the flying wings of sparrow
Excellent Haiku Rose Marie, that really sums up life everywhere.
In classical haikus, the last line should explode itself and stand out uniquely, but at the same time should hug the first two lines gracefully. A great example is this piece
A powerful, dramatic and lovely haiku. I enjoyed it a lot.

If I didn't do any better, I'd swear that there's a haiku competition happening on PH. And you're definitely a finalist with this brilliant haiku, Rose Marie. Thoroughly enjoyed every word of every line.
