The grass praises the rain, the burden is acceptable. Selah! Sincerely, John Moses

Sara, I can see the grass bending down, flattened under the weight of the water. Nice haiku. Krista

Great description of the Pampas Grass being pelted by rain. I had some growing in my yard, but the leaves are razor sharp and produced many cuts. Nice work, Sara! Love, Carolyn

Poised...enriched words. Pls consider 5/7/5 cylab; the second cylab is not 7. May I suggest this: Wet and burdened under weight. Wishing you all the best.
