I love your senryu. The Hills are alive sang Julie Andrews. Love your poem about that movie classic, The Sound Of Music. Inwish they would make more wholesome movies like that.

Thank you so much for your beautiful review. Yes, the Sound of Music was one of the great classics, very wholesome and also of a quality rarely seen today, even without the special effects technology we now have at our disposal. It is so uplifting, and available to inspire the imaginations of future generations as well. May God bless you and give you a very Merry Christmas.

I love this movie and you explain it well. The sound of music is one of my favorite musicals, it has great songs, intrigue and suspense and a happy ending. Best of luck in the contest. :)

Jeepers, how old is this film? lol "How do you solve a problem like Maria?" Great job with the 5-7-5 and a great pic to go along for the presentation. This should do well in the booth. Good luck to you and have a great holiday. Lynda

Comment from Sandra du Plessis
A very well-written haiku movie review about the very popular movie sound of music which is my most favorite musical of all time. We still sing the songs from time to time.

Comment from rspoet
You've written an excellent 5-7-5 poem for the contest
with very good description.
I assume it's about the Sound of Music and Julie Andrews,
but you might want to mention the movie's name in the notes,
dedication or title for those who haven't seen it.
Great picture choice.
Best wishes.
Robert

Thank you, Robert, for your excellent review of my poem. I'm glad you like the picture. I think you're the second person who would like me to name the movie, but so far no one has failed to recognize it. Maybe I will put something in the Notes, after the contest is over. I am always afraid to change anything in a post while voting is in progress -- I am never sure if it's against the rules. Thanks again, and Merry Christmas!

Comment from Dolly'sPoems
The Sound of Music is an amazing movie with a serious story behind it, a period in history where there were few escapes from the Nazi evil that spread, and this joyous movie painted a much brighter picture, much enjoyed, very clever, love Dolly x

Thank you very much, Dolly, for your excellent and lovely review. I agree, I wish more people would have escaped the terrible evil the Nazis brought to many peacefully dwelling people during that time -- and how different history might have been, if the vast majority had been as conscientious as the von Trapps, resisting acquiescence to their hateful ideology. Yes, the movie is full of love and beauty. A Merry and Blessed Christmas to you and yours!

Oh, my God, I wish I had a six for it. This is my favorite movie of all times, and you've captured it in just lines. Stunning imagery, visuals and artistic presentation with the artwork.
This will do very well in the contest; you got my vote.
