Madam, I am happy to learn that you took my comment on previous Haiku in right spirit, I learned the art of writing haikus some 4 years back, it took some time and I am still learning it, I am sure you will write some great haikus soon. No offence again for my recent comment just one syllable is more in line one if you remove tree it will be fine. Thank u so much once again for taking my comment in right spirit.

Thank you for your encouragement and corrections, have made the changes.. right now am fascinated by the theme of Haiku.. however I feel it makes one lazy towards writing longer lyrical poetry in the language one is intuitively habituated to from childhood.. request you to check my other poems especially the Why Blame Me A Blood Moon. thanks

Thanks for such a wonderful poem which brings to fore the immense beauty of the 'African Tulip Tree' within the confines of nine words only. Thanks.
