Perfect Storm – Haiku Sequence
Perfect Storm
Charcoal clouds begin to form on blue canvas of sky Moving quickly across the expanse Darkness hovering Menacingly Spawning thunder claps Booming loudly Lightning cracks open the sky on cue Together in perfect concert they perform Before bowing in acceptance of the rain’s applause Christine Bolton - Poetry for Healing © Frank Tassone is hosting D'Verse Poets Pub tonight and has prompted us with a Haiku Sequence. You can write your haiku using the traditional 5-7-5 syllable count. Alternatively, you can write haiku that can be read aloud in a breath, using a short-long-short format, without a syllable count.
