A former lawyer-mediator, David has been a Haiku Advocate at his popular weblog f/k/a since 2004, mixing "breathless" punditry aimed mostly at legal professionals with one-breath poetry by Honored Guest haijin. His own haiku and senryu can be found at f/k/a, in many journals, and at his dagosan's haiku diary. He lives along the Mohawk River in Schenectady, NY.

Thanks for the comments. Alistair, your wife is clearly an optimist. In the real world, many may be entered in the wet-t-shirt contest, but very few are chosen.
i like the humor of this summer-haiku!
sudden downpour
ending just as suddenly–
the lingering thunder
My wife’s comment – isn’t that “everyone wins”?

morning downpour–
swatting horde of blood gorged black mosquitoes
