Ebony rain cries
broken winged angels, falling
birds have lost their song

    Aww what a sad line to think of birds not being able to sing!

    Beautiful haiku, you always make nature poems feel so real and make them enjoyable to read.

    I'm quite fond of the haiku poetry form. And yours is absolutely beautiful, i'm taken in by the imagery flowing from your words. And I love the usage of ebony to describe the rain.

    I so much like the beautiful scenery you have created.. I like how you described the pouring rain with 'ebony' .. It kind of emphasized its degree of severity.. It felt like a storm is coming. Amazing.

    One thing I've learnt about Haiku is they are tricky little things...Even though they are only 17 syllables..each one must be powerful. People think they are easy to write but I have found them to be the hardest, the last line must pull the other two together and you have done so beautifully MT. Great job on this form. Take care
