Transforming Skies

   Wiki free images

Sun-shot, spun gold clouds
graze the morning sky above 
stratospheric flocks

Grey-stained spitting sky
crackles with power and life
sending out the winds

In the Imaginary Garden we have been asked to write haiku for Transforming Fridays with Nature's Wonders.  This is National Haiku Day, so go crazy in 5, 7 and 5 syllables!

  3. Nice comment on the weather, Mary. I like the sky spitting. I also like the weather picture. I see a pig's head in the lower left and a long John clad little fellow flying in the upper right.

  8. You have a real way with these, Mary. I was going to say the first one knocked my socks off, but the second one is just as good. I am hopeless with the haiku.

  9. Love the sounds of the second haiku. It put me at the center at the sky, and told me why the storm... perfect.
