I cannot claim credit for this photo of a lightning flash nearly 200 miles long. It was seen over the entire D/FW Metroplex to Waco, Texas on 6/14/2001. It was amazing!

I remember that bolt, and then the crashing of the thunder afterwards. It was SPECTACULAR! (And SCARY!!) Powerful, stunning haiku and picture; well done! BRAVA!

This is like 1000 bolts shooting through my mind and senses, Karla! One of the most powerful and brilliant haiku I have read! Both metaphor and sentiments are stunning. And JUST the right written form to express this short, sharp, shock! Totally awesome, thank you! Kate xx

Your three lines were far stronger than any power a bolt could produce.
