Haiku # 28: This dewdrop world

A rainy cool day and while out walking and noticing all the raindrops on vegetation, I thought of Issa's lovely haiku. Although he talked of dewdrops, the raindrops seemed to be a suitable substitute.

This dewdrop world -

It may be a dewdrop

And yet - and yet -.

Fantastic image, with the reflection in the dewdrop, hope you're not one of the 60 million people that will be affected by the TS/Hurricane coming that way.
