This meets the contest requirements beautifully. The syllable count is spot on and the imagery conveyed is lovely. I wish you all the best in the judging and thank you so much for sharing this with me.

Wonderful entry in this 5-7-5 contest...concise and accurate...says it all. Amazing to me how they just KNOW, but, like you said...God's perfect system!

I think it would be nice to catch a flight and head further south for the winter but unfortunately I'm not a goose and so I'll stay here and try to keep things going..

Well done with your 5-7-5 Buck

This 5-7-5 haiku looks perfect to me:

Across the night sky

geese in formation fly south

God's perfect system

Best wishes in the contest, Carolyn.

Hi Carolyn,

This is a great poem about the geese. I saw a lot of them the other day by the hospital where they hang out because there's a small pool of water. Today snow is coming down steadily. Old Winter always has to push autumn away early.

    Hi there Kat,
    We have had no snow yet but we know it is on its way, sooner or later. Some geese do stay here for the winter also, but many fly over going farther south. So happy you liked this one.
    Love, Carolyn

stunning presentation of your poem, which is in excellent 5/7/5 syllable count
concrete imagery that makes for a scene that is both easy and inviting to visualize
and such a thoughtful reflection in your in final line
