Notes About The Poem

A dry empty creek bed, small trees and tall glass pushed sideways gives testimony to past storms.  As the wind picks up and the rain begins to fall it’s not long before a deluge of water fills the creek.   Within a few minutes, the calm is exploding into a chaotic action. . .

flood me with your love

Very creative and passionate work..Unusual Haiku..Thanks for stopping by..The cat seems to be on the hunt now that the weather has cooled down..I don't like for her to eat so much wild game for she will start to lose weight..She is the longest cat I have ever seen and tends to be thin..Maybe it will get cold enough soon so that she will stop hunting..Sara

Thanks Sara, I know I push the bounds a Haiku -- I appreciate your indulgence! I would love to see a picture of the long hunting cat!

I like this David, storms can mean so much from relationships to the rain. and yes they can flare up quickly and its up to us to put out the flames. thanks for sharing
