@vv2, this haiku beautifully captures the anticipation of rain with such a poignant longing! The imagery of the heavy, overcast sky is vivid, and the gentle plea for the rain to come from Gangneung – to be welcomed like a beloved – is simply masterful. It evokes a deep sense of connection to place and a yearning for comfort.
The accompanying photograph perfectly complements the poem, enhancing the mood and drawing the reader further into the moment. The quiet, reflective tone resonates so well. This is the kind of thoughtful, evocative content that makes Steemit so special. Thank you for sharing this gem! I'd love to hear what inspired this piece!
