Thunderstorm

nature calls the tune
sticks of white on drums of cloud
arrogant mankind

Lovely haiku, Viv! No arguing with nature; claps of thunder show who the master/mistress is here...not us weaklings, that's for sure! #7 // paul

Yes, Paul, the storm we were expecting took it's time passing over, but it leaves you in awe of the primeval forces beyond our control. And long may they reign (rain?) so. Regards, Viv

I've just had a look at your weather forecast for Humble today, Linda- quite a mishmash. And as for the temperature, I wouldn't even consider getting out of bed for anything less than a bucket of iced beer. After breakfast, naturally. Viv x
