RAIN . . . 6 HAIKU

weather man says rain / weather app predicts more rain / settle in by fire

weather man says rain / weather app predicts more rain / voice begs it to end

weather man says rain / miserable dark days and nights / embers of hope glow

the rain keeps pounding / hopping off the car’s bonnet / smoke a cig and watch

constant dig repair / camber of roads banjaxed / spot flooding with rain

relentless rain pounds / the wild wild Atlantic way / lives up to it’s name

Robin in the Mist – 2 Haiku

Yesterday, the mist and drizzle was sweeping in off the Atlantic. Just after switching on the coffee percolator, I glanced out the kitchen window. There in a tiny hole in the hedge was a robin sheltering from the nasty weather. From my mind came these two haiku.

  1. wind whips across bay / robin shelters in hedgerow / window to nature

2. the sweeping mizzle / robin shelters in hedgerow / watch his sereneness

Thank you for reading
