Before a Cloudburst

Black cloud mystery! Shadows on the mountainside! Moving in twilight!

Great images shine in the darkness of this write. It is beautiful the natural beauty of an incoming thunderstorm perfectly. I feel it could also capture the sadness in ones spirit on a tough day in life while the last line leaves hope for Spirit to makeeverything alright again. Thank you for sharing. This one goes in my favs. Smiles from Lolita

Great descriptive Haiku. This time just before the storm can hold a whole range of emotions. Keep the creative pen flowing. Sara
