Green leaves turned upwards
Maple tree prepares to drink
Raindrops soon coming

Dark 4 o'clock clouds
Western skies dark foreboding
Indiana summertime

The wind whirls the clouds
High in the threatening sky
Electrons collide

Summer rains refresh
Paint the earth a greener hue
Filling pools of blue

"Dark 4 o'clock clouds

I love these moments before a storm.  Tremendous imagery to me.

Seems you sent the storm our way. I know that Spring rains are suppose to bring May flowers; however, ours have been beaten about with the rain and wind. Enjoyed reading.

These are just lovely and alive with the
fresh imagery of Spring.
Beautifully done.

Glad these you enjoyed. These Haiku's are memories  Of Hoosier Days Past
  
I finally got the Haiku bug perhaps.

Excellent Songbird. . .
