Rays obscured by clouds
shine amid monsoon winds bright
rainbow gives delight

Sudhir~

Clouding overhead
What's that peeking through at me ?
Rainbow shine of you

Moon comes out to play
peeking from tendrils and wisps
clouds parting in smiles.

Love Haiku, thank you, Sudhir!

SUD, this is wonderful...
you nailed the impact of imagery
needed to make Haiku work...

YOU are meant for Haiku

Words from Eastern sky
Radiate through the storm cluds
Bringing rainbow smiles

You brought a smile with this one
Great work

  With all your post, it's hard to believe that this is your first Haiku. Great first one.

Clouds o'er sunny day
rain in torrents sheeting down
rainbow brightness gives

Good Haiku. I can't believe it's your first attempt.

Be well

I'm glad that everyone had a chance to see this wonderful piece
you did.
Thanks for sending it to Rainbows.
Here is a poem for you!

____________________________
The rain is pouring down
When there is no hope to be found
A clearing begins to overtake
It's a light ray for heaven sake

Sidhir is this light
A light that overtakes the night
Busting through this pouring rain
Drying all that is pain

Bringing joy and happiness
For all to see and wish
Giving his light with a glow
He's a part of this thing the Rainbow

Sudhir, I must say
that you and these things called haikus
make quite a good match.

well done  Steve B
