The Parched Grass Poem by Rose Marie Juan-austin

Very nice! My grass is parched too: -)

A very well written Haiku Rose. thank you for sharing your wonderful insight

Hi, A haiku par excellence. That a storm precedes a shower is nature’s law, except in the case of Monsoon showers. So, the parched grass awaits a storm. When a storm brews, copious rain is a foregone conclusion.......

A timely warning to the humanity, a big storm of nature is now due.

A wonderful poem Rose! The poem is very insightful. ..10

This haiku is beautiful; it has two faces: the surface meaning as understood by the general public (such as the spontaneity required in haiku), and a hidden face where the analysis of symbols leads to other worlds.

Brilliant, as usual. Thanks for sharing.anjandev roy.

Parched Bermuda grass waits for rain. Rain can only quench its thirst. So nicely you have designed this haiku. Thanks again.

I am thinking of Mansoon rains of India. It quenches the thirst of parched grass but never lets us forget that storm is a storm. Very good choice of words in brevity.

The average grass, when dehydrated has a yellowish-white color, but I have seen in Death Valley (the USA) on the Devil's Course, this color represents living grass, life long they have this color, what a difference with the average grass on earth. Fantastic worded brevity about the condition grass could have. Only the rain can quench its long thirst. A myriad of 10's for this loveliest punctually created poem. A dashing concise.
