This is a terrific entry for the Skies Eye Haiku Too contest! I love how you have tied "thunder claps" with "showstopper" together ... brilliant!
Well done! This one's a winner!

Thank you for your complimentary review and for creating the contest.

I like this. I do think the second claps should taps instead and show stopper I've heard before so that's cliche for me. Other than that I love this little poem.

You can get lost in listening to it thunder and lightning. I could probably watch and listen all day but I also like a good storm (we never get good storms where I live) so I'm okay with watching and listening on the inside as well. Great job

This fills the contest requirements as to subject mater and construction. It also follows the nature and seasonal features common to haiku that are not mentioned in this contest's requirements. I do feel though that the last line, the satori is a little weak, following on logically the two previous lines. The satori should make me think aha! That is an original idea. The repetition of claps in the first line I feel also tends to weeken the overall effect.

Hello :)
Good syllable count and season kigo. Your lines are not grammatically connected but it was not specified in the contest rules so I guess that is alright for this contest.
Good job!

A beautiful haiku - very evocative and descriptive. In a few short words you have managed to portray the beauty and majesty of a thunder storm. Beautiful.
