Thunder

Sudden flash of light
Waiting, counting and calculating
A distant drum roll

Clear blue sky above me
Umbrella open overhead
Hiding from the sun

Rainbows flashing all around
Sun after the rain

Shining so brightly
Even though it's not yet dark
The swifts dart around

Carried on the breeze
The scent of climbing roses
Shyly opening

Shades me from the sun
Keeps the rain from soaking me
A useful structure

Not quite shaped right yet
And the label scratching me
Needs a wash or two

Glad that I didn't

Soon becoming tall and strong
Fresh new bullrushes

The log basket is empty
Fetch wood. Light the fire.

Winter weather protection

Meteors tonight!
So I look out the window
No sky to be seen

Spring mist

Seen from my window
A white line across the fields
River valley shroud

Gestation is necessary
Then a miracle

A faint dustiness
Adding pale grey to purple
A newly picked plum

Rent by winter storms
Shingle now where sand once was
Everything changes

Everything lined up
Ready to go in the ground.
When rain stops falling.

@shane @haiku @dailyhaikuprompt @poetry Feedback is always welcome, and you can have "When it stops raining" as a new last line, but I wanted the feeling that omitting the "the" gives. It seems to have been raining for weeks.

rivets OP ,
@rivets@mastodon.cloud avatar

@shane @haiku @dailyhaikuprompt @poetry no, no, it's good to hear what others take from a thing. I'm maybe not articulating my thoughts clearly enough. (And I am a bit too wedded to 5-7-5)

Spring day

Getting warmer now
Could do without a jacket
But it's still raining.

Your surface invisible

Singing their hearts out
So many birds around me.

And then, suddenly, reversed
A quiet turning point

Oh no! Seen through glass.
Turn the coins in your pocket.
Or so my mother said.

Not quite warm enough
But such a pleasant feeling.
Ruffling through my hair

Mustard flower

Miles of bright yellow
We wait for seeds to ripen
Then we have the spice!
