It's Raining, It's Pouring: Reader Submits Poem For National Haiku Day
We asked readers to submit haikus for National Haiku Day. One reader posted about something on every Californian's mind: rain.
CAMPBELL, CA — Patch called on our readers to channel their inner creativity for National Haiku Day and they did not disappoint.
We asked our followers on Facebook to send us their best haiku about California, following the format of five syllables, followed by seven, followed by five again.
This haiku, submitted by Liz Zie, feels especially resonant Thursday as Campbell gets soaked by almost an inch of rain. Thanks for your submission, Liz!
The forecast says rain.
All day was gray and drizzly.
The flowers still thirst.
