Spring Rain

SPRING RAIN


                an early spring rain
             by a patch of ugly snow
                 grass is greening up



                  an early spring rain
             everything hangs     it’s like
              looking through the clouds


 
                       such a dreary day
            drop…          drop…          drop…
                                          …chinese torture
            please.           come on and rain!



                             Dave Austin

Paul Callus April 4, 2016 at 4:05 PM Love these haiku, Dave! About time we had some proper rain, even here in Malta...we are short of rain and the farmers have been up in arms:) ~ Regards // paul

Connie Marcum Wong March 31, 2016 at 3:23 AM It is difficult to have it look like rain and then just leave everyone hanging onto hope. The rains are such a blessing. I enjoyed your poem and how you formatted it too, Daver. Hope you enjoyed Easter. ; )

Poet Destroyer A March 30, 2016 at 1:29 PM Daver, lol,, wow,, I feel the insanity of the drops on the last haiku. Chinese methods are nuts. Well I'm sitting here in front of my computer waiting reading about, waiting for rain. HUGS. LINDA Daver Austin March 30, 2016 at 1:36 PM Thank you, dear. Now I shall visit you. Love, daver

Kelly Deschler March 29, 2016 at 11:52 PM Rain can dampen our spirits, but it still has to be better than snow! ...And finally the first signs of spring are beginning to show themselves... A great set of haiku, Daver. Well done! Daver Austin March 30, 2016 at 2:15 PM Thanks for the visit. Catch you in a minute. daver
