I really like this.

At first glance it looks simple (always good for haiku) but it isn't a cause and effect poem at all.

The word choice of 'thunder' at the beginning works well, both to the ear, and visually.

all my best,
Alan

Thank you Alan for your support.
I'm thinking about another edition
of haiku notebook in the future
(though this blog serves that
purpose I suppose).

Thanks again!
