Country Side

Country side...
lightning flashes
bring down rain.

strong wind blows
fruits and leaves falling...
cyclone speaks.

Aro one thing that I can see which held you back is the use of capitals & periods, one reason a haiku does not use periods is that the intent is for it too be only a moments insight..not a complete thought or a complete story...poets wrote haiku before and after anothers writes many time in long, long strings of verse. Also, you have the cyclone speaking this is in your mind that the roar sounds like speech to you..you are making a judgement try to stay factual OBJECTIVE...Congrad's & SOUP Mail

Hi Olusequn...I like how the cyclone got everyone's attention at the end of your double haiku. Very nice use of alliteration, friend. It spoke volumes to me. Gwendolen
