Votes:421*** Points:11
Comments1:A very effective allusion to a current event without resorting to cliche.

passing shower--
the maestro tunes
his sitar strings
--sanjuktaa, India.
Votes:4*1*** Points:7
Comments:A nice 2 phrase haiku. I especially likes the repeated "s" sounds in each line of the haiku because the sounds reminded me of both the raindrops in the passing shower, and the various and changing tuning sounds of the strings as the maestro progresses with the turning.
