Summer takes a pause

Cool morning greets my hot skin

Autumn almost here

A thick cloudy start

Sunlight cracks the veil of grey

Draped across the sky

Heavy rain shower

Dusty, dry, scorched, and parched land

Cries out in relief

Water reflection

Mirrors nature’s soft beauty

On the lake’s surface

Outside my window

Leaves filled with sharp green color

Summer in full bloom

Gentle morning wakes

Light scattered across the sky

Time to warm the day

First day of August

The signs of fall in the shade

Humidity low

Blurry wings of speed

Keeps you hanging in the air

For a sip of sweet

Thanks: Wikipedia

Sunrise cracks the night

Splits it open with bright light

Darkness in retreat

Cloudy grey sunrise

Daylight choked out by dark clouds

Showers on the way

Thunder and lightning

Nature’s electrical dance

Those are the first two lines. Now, I need some help figuring out how to close this Haiku. I like all three of these lines, but I’m not sure what best fits it.

Here are the lines.

A. Takes two to tango

B. Across tonight’s sky

C. Across the night sky

Any thoughts as to which one is your favorite? Can you think of another line to close it with?

I’m leaning more towards A. myself.

Night time rain shower

Rolling gently off the roof

Putting me to sleep

I hope you guys have a Happy 4th!

Hanging on the tree

Sharp green of spring and summer

The color of fall

A rose has two sides

Cut by its sharp sticky thorns

Kissed by its beauty

A night-time rumble

Windows full of flashing light

Loud cascading rain

Watching thunderstorms

Rolling in as night returns

Lightning cuts the black
