Two Haikus

1.  A little boy sings
on a terrace, eyes aglow.
Ridge spills upward.

- Robert Yehling

I like this because it provides a good picture to imagine for. Also, it follows the 5-7-5 syllables rule. I think it is good is because, even though there is not any color adjective, but I can imagine a picture with a colorful view, pinky red in the boy's eyes (aglow), gray stairs or balcony that the boy stands at (terrace). Also, because the boy is singing, it makes the whole picture more vivid and lively. 

2.  I was in that fire,

The room was dark and somber.
I sleep peacefully.
- Andrew Mancinelli

I like this because it gives me a blue emotion and kind of oppressed. I think it is good because it has adjectives to describe the environment "dark" "somber" and it tells readers directly these are describing the "room". This poem is easy to understand the appearance. But, think deeply, in my opinion, it is a sad poem, the "fire" could be a real fire or a huge "fight" between the writer's important people. No matter what actually the case is, both of that situation would make the writer down and feel really sad and want to keep herself in her room, and at that point, everything for his/her is "dark" and "somber". Which automatically leads to his/her want to sleep peacefully.
