Pitter Patter Falls (Haiku)

rushing waters fall
as of sweet rhythmic curtains,
draping moss and stone

Adell, You have written a beautiful haiku inspired by Raul's "Rhythm of the Falls" contest. It will be difficult for him to pick a winner, I'm sure. Very nice job with this one. Good luck. Love, Dane

We also had months too dry here in Germany so we are looking forward to some rain. Very expressive haiku, Adell, especially line two. And thanks for your comment on Day Dreams. Love, Gert

Excellent haiku, Adell! I love the sound and images conveyed. Fall rains are welcome here in Florida. It's been dry lately, but perhaps if I imagine the rain as you describe it, God will bless us with some. Beautiful description! Love, Carolyn
