Walking UCSD’s campus is always interesting. Unexpected art pops up in surprising places. Today it was bright orange umbrellas. This is a place where our average rainfall comes in just under 10 inches annually. Some years it’s less. Occasionally we get a bit more–those are the “super bloom” years. At my last meeting today we had an invitation to write Haiku…with an emphasis on a single breath. I’m not sure I achieved the single breath, but I did write something resembling a Haiku–about umbrellas!

Umbrellas blossom

rain hides deep inside white clouds

rainy day without raindrops?
