Weeping willows sway
in time to the lazy song
of sweet summer time

Thanks! I actually did start giving them new titles, one of my newest ones is called "On the Streets," and I tried to make sure it wasn't too close to the poem ^_^ I appreciate your feedback, it helps me grow :)

I agree with @MalaikaJ. If you changed the title of your haikus, it may add more meaning and uniqeness to them. That's just my personal opinion. Other than that, all of them are amazing. I especially love this one! Voted 5/5!

I love writing. I love the swirl and swing of words as they tangle with human emotions. - James Michener

I like that many of your haikus describe simple things. One piece of advice, haikus are short and it's hard to get a lot of meaning across in them. You might want to write titles that add to the haiku rather than repeat the first line. Just a thought. I like them, though!
