Round 9 – Haiku Bob: sun in the clouds

 
grey skies
we show nothing
to half-time

 

 

winter darkness
our shortcomings
so clear

 

 

sun in the clouds
finally we find
a pulse

 

 

before the downpour
a flood
of goals

 

 

sheets of rain
the deficit
erased

 

 

rain squalls
one Swan
keeps bobbing up

 

 

winter rain
the grandstand overflows
with jubilant fans
