I've been inspired by the haiku I've recently read from talents like Paul Stewart, Mike Singleton (Mikeydred), Alyson Smith, and others. So inspired, in fact, that while I'm not joining the challenge, I've decided, for the first time, to try my hand at writing one.

Rhythm of the Rain by the Cascades was one of my favorite oldies as a kid, and since we've been inundated with rain lately, I've found myself humming the song again. And so, this:

Rain falls on us all

By never sharing our thoughts

We will drown alone

Haiku
