The nonchalant drops

Of the ambrosial rain

Cleansed away my soul.

The imagery is very nice, Sofia!

[Najam Us Saher]

I liked the imagery you have created. However, this is not a perfect haiku as the second line consists of only six syllables. It must be seven.

This is a very beautiful haiku. I love that you used "ambrosial." It's an unfamiliar word with a beautiful ring to it. Excellent job!

[Sofia]

Thank you very much for appreciating this haiku. I never really thought that it was good. Thanks again. :)

This isn't a bad first (or within the first five, honestly) attempt at haiku. 5-7-5 syllable structure isn't a true necessity, so feel free to experiment with less (or more) from here on.

It, like so many other haiku, makes me to smile. You have a great moment you brought to the front of my mind. Keep writing.

[Sofia]

Thank you very much for the kind visit and review. I'm glad you gave it a read. I thought we had to write a haiku within the syllable limit. Will try writing with less words :)

Just saw ambrosial, and thought it said ambrosia.
My favourite rice was raining down. I was in heaven.
Don't do that again. Liked it though.

[Sofia]

Hahaha! Thank you so much for the review :)

Ahh, could feel it...have to admit, 'ambrosial' made me look up a dictionary lol. A real lovely and soothing haiku!

[Sofia]

Thank you very much! Even i hadn't known abt such a word..if my teacher hadn't told me to write the summary of a poem in a very high level language.. that's when I came across this word..searching through the internet for a high level word for "divine"...lol😂

[Zoya]

Haha, feels real good to learn new words. Keep surfing lol.

[Sofia]

Haha! Lol..
