this one looks familiar to me but I don't have a comment down here. I sure am enjoying your haiku.

Well I suppose you can at least say the puddles are clean enough to have reflections! Weather really does to affect ones mood dramatically... sub-conscience or not, it happens. Don't hate me for saying this for it's a very nit-picky thing... the "my" in the first line looks strange where it is... visually it'd look better in the middle (in my humble opinion). You can leave it as is just fine... but I always strive to be as honest as possible in my comments.

You're right. I'll change it. Constructive criticism is always welcome. Thanks... Jack

Sorry for all the rain, that would bring anyone's spirits down. The sun will shine upon you soon.

It is doing so as I type this. Thanks for reading, Richard.

Another huge image created in a few short words. Reminiscent of Oregon. Well done.

The weather prediction here is for days of rain with the occasional tornado, so gloom will continue for a while longer. Thanks for the comment... Jack
