Description: I was reflecting today at work in a fairly good mood that many things share the same description. Tears, rain, and stress. Hope you enjoy this Haiku.
This is a lovely Haiku! And such a wonderful topic to write about! I love the rain on a hot summer day! The freshness in the air as it cleanses! I love the sound of the rain as well. Just to lie there and listen to the rainfall is quite soothing. You have written a beautiful piece here and even the mention of waterfalls which are truly brilliant! Lovely Haiku! Take care!
Haikus confuse me i just read them and want to add more onto it as they just stop at a dead end and they long to be finnished. i do agree with 'hanuman' that you should continue this 'piece' into a poem and develope new and exciting ideas. I love summer rain when its hot but then pouring down with rain - quite romantic in a way if your kissing in the rain with the one you love - oo maybe if you decide to extend this you could add romance in it - well you don't have to just a thought as i love romance lol cally xxx
i love rain... over here where i live at... it hasn't rained in dayzzzzzzzz...so i did enjoy this haiku.. and with your title it was like asking if it was rain. this is great kay
Maybe I shouldn't comment at all, because personally I've never seen the point of haiku. This is probably a failing in me, rather than in your poem. Whenever I read a haiku, I am always left with a "so what?" sort of feeling. Why don't you, just for me pretty please, take your idea and extend it into a "proper" poem where you can develop your ideas and display your prowess with vocabulary and imagery. I feel that to a Japanese, haiku were more meaningful artistically because the verse poem suits the syllabics of hirigana and that painted on rice paper in kanji, it would have a synethestic visual, aural appeal.
