Fire Fight (Haiku)

Dry weather more fires

Night Sky darkening

Thunder, rain and Lightning Strike

Tree split then flames high

just love your Haiku's Will and this one is exceptional, i love all those theme's of nature although only at a distance :)

[Willard Wells]

I seem to have fallen into a nature and destruction poems, I expect due to our current liquid situation in the Western US. Thanks for the kind works and visiting.

Hello Mr. Wells, cool Haiku you have here,, although I embrace the
Lightnings and thunders the storm in general, I used to chase after them when I was younger! :-)

[Willard Wells]

Thank you EG for your time reading my work and commenting. Glad it brought forth some memories of your storm chasing days.

I have seen the damage done by the thunder. Your words brought back the memory. Mother Nature can be damn powerful. Thank you Willard for sharing the excellent poetry.

this makes such a impact it such few words...you can see it being so dry it just cracks..! Great write!

[Willard Wells]

Thank you so much young lady. I am always happy to see you visited. I appreciate the kind words and I seem to be stuck in the rut of Haiku (which may not be bad) and the lack of water in my part of the world/country.

[sereenaoutloud]

You write them so well, few word is not easy ,, at least i do not think it is!
Yes i hear ya,, the weather is too dry!!

[Willard Wells]

I felt guilty so I just wrote a two verse piece. Now I feel better. hahaha

[sereenaoutloud]

LOL.. thats too funny! Did you post it?

[Willard Wells]

Yes, Happy Place. Things are not always as they seem.

Very vivid imagery in a tight little poem, dear poet :)

Hello again Lynn. Thank you so much for your kind words and reading my work. Greatly appreciated.

[Sharon L.H. Kelly]

Very descriptive, I can see, feel, and hear the strike. Perfect form.

[Willard Wells]

thank you so much. I appreciate your taking time to read and review my work. your words are to kind.

[Sharon L.H. Kelly]

Now I just need you to post some of your work in the group "All Aboard the Haiku Express" so that I can feature them!

[Willard Wells]

i like this :) your really good at writing haikus

[Willard Wells]

I am not sure how I got hooked, but I have always like short verse. When I was around 14 I was writing one line work. Like 6 or 12 words. Of course at that point I had little idea of what I was doing. For that matter I am not sure I have figured it out yet. Life is a journey and you must see where it takes you.

[Not here]

thats definitely true

I like it Will but, I do not love it like I do most of your Haikus.
I find it a bit clumsy.
Just being honest, my friend.

[Willard Wells]

My problem is I seem to work at a pace that is kind of like checking spaghetti by throwing it against the wall and see if it stick. Now for me, this was one of my better ones. Not the best and not the worst. LOL All a matter of perception. Thank you for your time and review. And you do give me moment for pause.

Very nice haiku. Clear discription and scene. Well done :)

[Willard Wells]

Thank you Guy. I appreciate the review.

[John Alexander McFadyen]

Ok love the direction of this Willard. Middle line is only six syllables. The title reminded me of a battle in a war zone rather than a forest fire though.

[Willard Wells]

Easy fix thanks. I should have confirmed before, but keep making "lightning" three syllables. Thanks as always for the time and review.

[John Alexander McFadyen]

My pleasure Willard and I do enjoy your work.
