This 5-7-5, Precipitation Suite, has the proper formatting and accepts the added seasonings from the sky which seem to be applied for our better enjoyment of nature's offerings.

This is a fun nature haiku suite with a wonderful play on words with 'seasoning'. Maybe once the contest is over you can add an extra stanza for winter snow.
Nicely done.
Best of luck!
Julie

Sounds of the seasons adding a little flavor and spice to our life. Your haiku doesn't it quite well and made me smile as I pictured each scene.
Smiles, Carol

I enjoyed your words and repetition. You also got the syllable counts right for the contest. You did a great job with each season. Thank you for sharing, and best wishes to you.

A nice poem full of fresh ideas, using one of my favorite devices - onomotopoeia! "Rain rinses jeweled leaves-- an excellent image.
Nice complementing photo.

Your piece vividly captures the sensory experiences of different types of rain and weather. The onomatopoeic sounds like "Plip! Plop!" and "Crick! Crack!" effectively draw the reader into the atmosphere you're describing, creating a rich auditory experience. The repetitive use of "Nature's seasoning" ties the different seasons together with a unified theme, highlighting the natural rhythms and transformations of the Earth.
