Thunder and lightning,

Summer celebrates its birth,

Applause from above.

I’m glad I enjoyed summer’s first full moon over the last two evenings as tonight featured a major thunderstorm.  There is a saying that when March ‘comes in like a lion, it goes out like a lamb’.  I wonder what it means when summer starts off with a dramatic storm.

 My haiku incorporates today’s Monday haiku poetry challenge prompts from Ronovan Writes: ‘birth’ and ‘cheer’ (applause).

My name is Janice.  I started blogging as Ontheland when I moved from Toronto to a rural area near Kingston, Ontario in Canada.  Over time I have found myself writing poetry, mostly in Japanese forms, such as haiku and haibun.  One of my deepest interests is the natural world: the joy of it and how we can look after it better.
