Iconic Storm

iconic storm
blasts through 
land reaping havoc —

pliant grass blades bend 




 




In 1950, an iconic storm blasted through the Eastern U.S. at Thanksgiving.

HAIKU is a Japanese short poem that uses imagistic language to convey the essence of an experience of nature intuitively linked to the human condition. FORM: In Japanese, haiku is written in three lines 5/7/5. In English, it's 17 syllables or less and as brief as possible.

The essence of haiku is represented by the juxtaposition of two images or ideas separated by a dash to pause for introspection, usually at end of the second line. source of 5/7/5 syllables rule *** source haiku rules by William J. Higginson, Haiku Society of America *** HaikuWorld.org
