    Dear Mr. Edwards,

    Thank you for the opportunity to submit haiku for Every Writer’s Betcha’ Can’t Haiku 2023 Contest.

    *****
    haiku 1

    our prismatic earth
    disperses diversity—
    VIBGYOR unity

    *****
    haiku 2

    immersed in oneness
    nourishes flickering flames—
    yoga at solstice

    *****
    haiku 3

    color of our blood
    at zenith around solstice—
    emancipation

    *****
    haiku 4

    sickled down by time
    half moon maiden in profile—
    once a strawberry

    *****
    haiku 5

    pressed floral wafer
    vanished words in sepia . . .
    what is your story?

    *****

    Thank you for your consideration. Best wishes.

    Sincerely,

    Monica Kakkar

    I did everything to get my boyfriend back but nothing worked.

    I contacted a relationship doctor i saw online.

    I told the relationship doctor everything,

    He promised to fix my relationship problem.

    I am the happiest lady on earth right now,

    Never too late to fix your broken heart.

    You can still get your lover back…

    Fix broken relationship/marriage…

    My relationship was restored as promised,

    My Ex-boyfriend came back and promised never to leave me again

    Everything happened just in 3 days..

    I RECOMMEND YOU TO __________________
