drought -
parched and brown cornfields
laden with worry
clouds –
dark with anticipation
while the land waits
rain –
cool drops of succor drum as
cornstalks nod and dance

Ah, Lee, your haiku touch
has reached perfection.
Liking the progression--
from drought to clouds to rain.
And the final touch, as
"cornstalks nod and dance"
Superb!
