You know, we joke about the “monsoons” we get here in Wisconsin, during an unusually wet spring. I’m certain it’s no joke where you live. What a different perspective…

Monsoon, you know it actually sounds like something you want to experience at least once in your life, just to know how it is, but then again, I guess, actually not?

We joke too about Monsoon season in Michigan, in fact ours seems to have only just ended, but like Kelly, reading the haiku gives a different perspective. The haiku was beautiful.
