MIchael , is this for the tears contest. I was just about to say, you could take both these recent haiku and combine them for the flowing water contest.But I guess you have two different contests here you can use. COool.

They say raindrops can hide teardrops, Michael, but for me they only produce more. A lovely entry for the contest and I wish you success! Love, Carolyn

This is true; that at times the rain feels like tears. That at times there is a pull to stand in a rain shower simply to feel the rain wash over us. That at times, we are so in pain, we wish only to lay down upon the earth and let rain fall upon us. Your haiku said all these things to me. Very good writing, Michael. Very good.
