My daughter wrote her first haiku. She's only 10, so I think she did pretty good.

 

                                               Little butterfly

                                        Floating on the breezy wind

                                            Fly my dreams away

Thank you! I'm going to show her any comments she gets; she'll be tickled!

My daughter says to tell everyone thank you!

I wish I could write so figuratively! Nice Haiku!

beautiful (and better than a lot of grown ups!)

She smiled when she read "better than a lot of grown-ups".

Tell your daughter she did a wonderful job and to keep up the good work! Be sure she keeps these treasures as she grows into a writer - she'll enjoy looking back at them. I have mine, and they give me great pleasure!

Excellent. A fantastic job.

Yes, I keep all of her writings in a file in my cabinet. She'll be glad I did, later.
