If I write more of these I will not share them here, probably. all the feedback has just been pedantry about what haiku traditionally do.(Today, 06:14 AM)matsunosuperfan Wrote: Haiku“Sad and heavy” is the sort of abstraction that is the opposite of haiku
When I'm sad and heavy
rain falls in the street, I smile
watching my dog run
Rain falls in the street
