Nice, gentle, weight of thought, everything a good Haiku should be.
I really don't draw a line, as long as it's 'poetic', then it's poetry to me. Poetry isn't about technique and rules, it's about finding the beauty in the details. Poetry should be about giving, and there's nothing giving about indecipherable mazes of self indulgent diary entries with meaning that does not extend beyond the ego of the creator. Which is what most so called 'poetry' adds up to. If more people thought about giving something in their poetry to the reader, then poetry wouldn't have such a bad reputation.

Perhaps a little too bitter and judgemental. Some nice phrases though.
