thundery night, 
     I switched off our ADSL --
     still thundering

Following thundery-haiku is from w. f. owen's Haiku Notebook (Lulu.com 2007)


distant thunder
the neighbor's dog
scratches the door

Muttering thunder . . .
the bottom of the river
scattered with clams

And also Basho, Station 15 - Iizuka

I stopped overnight at Iizuka. I had a bath in a hot spring before I took shelter at an inn. It was a filthy place with rough straw mats spread out on an earth floor. They had to prepare my bed by the dim light of the fire, for there was not even a lamp in the whole house. A storm came upon us towards midnight, and between the noise of the thunder and leaking rain and the raids of mosquitoes and fleas, I could not get a wink of sleep.

warm night --
did you sleep well
grasshopper?

O moon
up there alone
anyway - Cheers!

          O, full moon,  please, 
          I'm taking a snapshot of you, 
          don't move!

Cloudy sky --
bewaring UV-radiation
under a big tree

Sunny day --
more than ten thousand leaves
sunbathing

I promised to write a 5-liner:

   
   Fully-fledged 
           mosquito 
   pays her first visit 
                 to me -- 
   summer vacation!

          half made moon 
          sailing towards 
          July

sharpened
my pencils --
this time
going to write
a five-liner haiku?

Two plus one

#1

old friends of mine --
mosquito, and yet
another mosquito


#2

The mosquitoes
and I
not getting along


Bonus (#3)

Summer heat --
drinking warm cup of coffee
in a café

warm summer day --
an old dandelion full of
white parachutes

          a long silence  -- 
          old stone had a story  
          to tell

This "stone" is made of steel concrete
