Barefoot in the rain Laughing and splashing in pools Hand in hand with you Dark clouds overhead Deep shadows in meadow grass Trees bowing to storm Forked lightning cuts sky Ozone freshens all the air Warm drops wash our faces Sun peeks through the clouds Crowding through all the darkness Brings sparkles to eyes Barefoot in the rain Breathing ozone freshened air Sparkling-eyed faces ~You have to have a dream so you can get up in the morning. ~ Billy Wilder [This message has been edited by Wilfred Yeats (edited 10-04-2000).] |

Bill--I love a storm, a soft rain, puddle jumping...Your poem makes me wish for just that...I think I'll do Marge's rain dance. |

These are among the best strung Haikus I have read. Wonderfully done sir and not a better poet of Haiku than Janet to be inspired by. LOVED them all in unison. |
