Description
full rowansstretched across the sky
the silence of a raven
-by ~cmrlj . he is my haiku pal.
here's my take on a visualization of the autumn he saw and the japanese rendition of his haiku:
七竈満ちる無言の鴉哉
nana kamado michiru mugon no karasu kana
nana kamado is literally "seventh stove". this species of ash wood is said to be able to stayed unburnt even after the seventh time inserted under a stove.

and etching Quoth the Raven by ~this-blue-moon :

for comment/critique contest, December 2012:
This is a very well done piece. One of the best features of this picture is the way you made the viewers' eyes travel. For me, I started at the crow, went down to the branches, and from that point I admired the entire painting as a whole. I like how you placed the crow inside such a bright setting where as a lot of other artists would surround it with gloom. One suggestion that I have is to make the colors more rich or deeper in color. Doing this would create a more defined contrast, and naturally magnetize eyes to this painting. Hope this helped! Keep up the great work.

The lack of punctuation is a good thing! That allows for more ways to read the haiku.

Nice. My feeling is that there would be more impact if there was more separation between the raven and the color though, or if the raven was larger and more dominating.
