Ice on snow on dirt
A garden that was and will
Reflects the sunrise

Again, a haiku feeling. A brief, lucid glimpse of nature in a few words. Well done.

Much enjoyed.  However, I suggest (seeing that you encourage critique) that you replace "was" with "did" - and "Reflects" with "Reflect".

Dear wise Owl from another land down under
( from our point of view )

Of the line
A garden that was and will
I shortened the line from
A garden that was there and will be there
Just to make it fit into the format of Haiku
As for the other
Whats and S heres or theres

Lori and Faith thanks glad you girls liked it
