Hi Justin, I suggest you check out http://www.ahapoetry.com/ for information on writing haiku as well as other informative web sites. Haiku, by the way, is the same in the singular and plural. Hurricanes occur in late summer and early fall. I have used it as a kigo. Haiku does not use personification as you have done in your haiku in Line 3. I received your e-mail. Are you Roy? or Justin?
