Nicely done Rom... very childlike carnival images w/the ballons & cotton candy... "Heaven's zoo" - I like the image! Fun haiku!

As a long time cloud watcher, really enjoyed this first trip out of the haiku barn Rommel.

It makes me think of when I was little and I would stare at the clouds and think that they looked like cotton candy. (my mom thought I was nuts for that) Very descriptive, I like

That's the great thing about haiku, if you have any inclination to verse at all, they're impossible to screw up. And they're a great excercise of your talent. Trying to tell the maximum story within the rigid format is a challenge to your poetic chops. Lovely image, by the way.

Nice work with the ethereal verse, Rommel. This could be the start of something big. Peace...
