under lightning skies
feel your touch like cricket chirps
soft as warm night rain

The challenge for Carpe Diem #1542 Cricket
is to write a fusion haiku
inspired by the following two haiku by Jane Reichhold.

lightning flash
into the sound of rain
a cricket shrills

nights
where you touched me
a cricket chirps

              Jane Reichhold
