Cotton cloud-puffs, or
Roiling storm clouds on the boil,
Sunbeams or showers?

Trifextra Weekend Challenge:
This weekend’s prompt comes from Hello, Cheney, whose lapse in memory was a happy accident for us. This weekend we’re asking you to harken back to your grade school days and write a haiku. No word restrictions, just stick to the structure as defined below. And check out Cheney’s turkey post for an example.
HAIKU (noun)
: an unrhymed verse form of Japanese origin having three lines containing usually five, seven, and five syllables respectively

Yes, I hear you! The weather is certainly all over the map these days, isn’t it? If you want a change in the weather, wait five minutes. That is how it was growing up on Cape Breton Island, too. You captured the unpredictability of weather nicely, along with the beauty of clouds. 🙂

Yes…Especially in Florida, where weather can change quickly. The only thing predicable is that there will be a thunderstorm that will (predictably) pass through, followed by brilliant sunshine. Thanks for stopping by.
