English Haiku

I've been reading that English haiku is not so much about form as content.  The idea is to invoke a feeling without expressing it.  I'm learning the 5-7-5 syllable form is more for Japanese haiku than English.


Understanding the above, I'm going to subject you to some new efforts.



Sheets of rain
Cold soggy boots
Warm fire

Spring storm
Trees bow
Spots on the window


Wind music
In the trees
Lullaby 


Rain on the roof
White noise orchestra
Comfy in bed
