HAIKU

September 2005

i gratefully write that my area was not directly affected by hurricane rita.

however, we were close enough to experience the tips of the spiral nebula that was the storm.

all thru the afternoon before landfall and all the next two days, we at the fringes of the 170 mile wide storm were amazed at the spectacle of watching the arms of the storm spiral overhead. sweeping arms of cloud, hazy sunshine, cloud, sunshine .... repeated every hour. ten minutes of sun for every hour of cloud.

the hurricane's approach
spiral fingers
of pink clouds

we just got high winds and nary a drop of rain.

hurricane threat past
rehanging the windchimes

gratefully,
