Rainbow

Rainbow


Rain turns into mist
sunshine peeking through the clouds
prism paints the sky





As this is my first attempt at haiku,
Any input would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks, RG

This is superb Robin! Perfect form and flow... the 'p' alliterations are most effective and your language is sublime... Best wishes, Keith

This is a great first attempt - well done, I can see it all now. :) also, the modern haiku need not be a strict 5/7/5, it can be anyway as long as it does not go over 17 syllables. :) Kristin

Robin, you are a natural at this, nice 5-7-5 flow. I enjoyed it, great imagery. You painted a lovely picture with a few amount of words. You are as good as the Japanese Masters of haiku Buson, Basho, Issa, and Shiki.
