a quiet rain–
content to lie awake
and listen
beads of mist
from the umbrella's spokes
alternating drops
my umbrella
flipped in the wind–
uncertain days

It's an underrated season.
Hmm. I left a comment here. Don't know what became of it.
Hi Bill,
Winter has its compensations: hearty soups, warm sweaters, fire going in the fireplace, warm in bed when the north wind blows.
You left a comment on last week's haibun.
Thanks for stopping by.
These haiku go together well and are quietly poignant.
Lovely haiku set Adelaide; To the challenge of uncertainty lets us endorse faith
much love...
Thank you Janet and Gillena for your comments.
