more winter showers
never ending rain and floods
where is the sunshine
withering winds whip
up a frenzy in the waves
all the beaches closed
this passing year comes
from dante's hell no sign of
freezing over soon
without
the crocodiles
poisonous jelly fish
and ferocious heat it could be
quite good

Dante's hell sounds about right. LOL! Your last stanza made me laugh out loud. Great poems, Rall!

Excellent, Rall.
ReplyDeleteWeather seems to be extreme everywhere, be it too hot, too cold, too rainy, too dry. We need goldilocks to set it right.
ReplyDeleteRall, I loved your haiku and cinquain! I've heard that the UK is having a summer without warmth and sun. The weather is so strange everywhere. Thanks for writing poetry with me each week. Fingers crossed that my comment takes this week. ❤️
ReplyDeleteBingo !
