Rain is a Hard Consonant

Rain is a Hard Consonant

Rain hits harder when
Letting World
In without judgment
Or an outside.

Juris, I hadn't thought of rain as a consonant, but that's exactly what it is, and a "hard" one. This is terrific. Haiku/tanka-like but better!

hi Juris

Great title. Buy into the L1-3. Is L4 needed?

cheers

Thanks guys. Hmmm, Phil you have a point. Was sticking to a form, replacing vowels with hard consonants, much like the original Japanese or Chinese. But you have a point;-) Thanks Tony for seeing through my thin attempt at form;-)

Hope you'all are well.

Hi doc, I too like the haikuesque clarity of this piece, the startling assertions.

Thanks,

It is the same impression I got, am I reading a haiku? So my mind started building the structure.  But the symbolical experience of raining hard and letting the world in (into some secure private space perhaps as contrast) opened it up for the reader to consume and make sense for himself.
