Everyone seems to cream themselfs when they read a haiku, good or bad they love it. They just annoy me i dont see why there so amazing.

Perhaps ...
you're just superficial?
If you are going to make a comment that's public, you might want to be sure that your English is correct. You meant "I don't see why they're so amazing". Also, it's "themselves", not "themselfs".

Very nice use of alliteration, that paints a picture of a summer night with a good AHA moment in L3. Thank you so much.

God i hate haiku.

I don't write many haiku ...
however I see nothing in such an innocuous type of poetry to inspire hatred.

I've tried haiku and mine always feel like my muse was constipated and then finally pooped something out. Tragic. I know. You, however, are most decidedly better than I. Your words move through me and remind me of my past growing up in florida and the summer nights spent on the beach in the rain. Now you don't provide a location with your haiku but that's what lends to it's amazingness (yes that's a word!). Any one can understand it and derive their own meaning.

I admire the seemingly simplicity of haiku.....because once, I tried to write one..... *smile*

There we go! -
Never a fan of haiku, but there always the exceptions...
I like it and as haiku goes it is nice...and good word choice, which is the most important thing...but...yeah, to me, compared to other forms, it doesn't add up to much.
Still - good job and good luck
Let me see...
if I can find you this picture...

Actually ...
I vacillated between "shimmer" and "simmer", but decided to go with shimmer.

If you were a "dirrty pretty" writer you could have done s[h]immer hehe

Bravo to any poet who can master the haiku! Marvelous usage of alliteration in 6 words perfectly describing sitting on the lanai, sipping iced tea, and being chased inside by instantaneous summer storm, or background heat lightning. You could also interpret this as a couple enjoying the warm night, and words erupting into a storm of nasty words. Crafty.
