Beautiful haiku. Very well done. I could really imagine the scene being played out in this poem. This is a very good entry.
And the artwork is beautiful and really complements the poem.

That feeling! It is so intense, and your small poem expresses it beautifully -- falling in love is a little like spring rain -- refreshing, but oh-so-suspect. Will it last? Is it good for me? An excellent entry for this contest -- best of luck.

Isn't it amazing how on a stormy windy dad we just want to run for shelter and kinda curse the grey day BUT when you're not alone and with the person of your dreams it's the best feeling in the world! Lovely piece!
All the best.
Jill:)

This 5-7-5, The Night We Met, has the proper formatting and blends the falling rain in with the emotions of two people caught in a torrent of weather and emotions. Nice.

Comparing rainfall to the process of falling in love is perfect. You captured the essence of romance in just a few short lines. Well fine. Love the artwork as well.

What and excellent poem and picture presentation supporting - well written with a good ending line - fell like spring rain - nice- the simplicity of 5/7/5 poems using an economy of words in 17, is always more challenging to me - well done - AP

And lots of thunder and lightening flashed as two hearts gently melded as one. Nice thoughts in your short poem. Great job! Good luck in the contest.

Oh, I love this:-) Falling in love like spring rain as the thunderstorm roars by. Great use of your 17 syllables and the presentation is lovely.

Good luck.

Hi,
This is a well written poem the brings to mind the movie "Dancing in the Rain". I like the metaphor of falling in love like the falling rain.
Keep writing and stay healthy
Good luck in the contest.
Have a great day.
Joan
