Steamy analysis of the weather! :)
Love your thoughtful haikus!
The color of rain.....great haiku.
Great Haiku! I loved writing these in elementary school haha!
Shalom! Great to see you ... not necessarily in the precise order - Tony Vega, Greenhill and Roberta Baxter. I had a busy day ... looking forward to a few days off later this week. Please pray I get it, as I am on call tomorrow. Should get 4 days from Thursday on. Shalom and thanks much for your support. Neil
