We had, are having, much needed rain. Over an inch already, more expected. Yahoo!!!!!!!


Poem Artwork

thunder awakens
long forgotten memories
of what it was like

not to be thirsty -
the ground opens its mouth and
takes in nourishment

We sure did need the rain! So nice to see the grass looking greener than it has in a very long time! Also the air is so much cleaner after a heavy rain/thunderstorm! Excellent haiku chain; keep these gems coming! BRAVA!

(((HUGS))) and much love, your twin, Karen Lynn. :)

This certainly slakes and sates our literary thirst Karla
An inspiring chain of Haikus, that superimposes the water of life that only our Saviour Jesus can bequeath on the thirsty traveller !
I agree with Ed below, enjoy it while you can, England is currently going through a water drought just now, and have imposed a water ban on hosepipes !
Love

Maybe the rain can bring you sunshine. Never mind a rainbow or two.
