Haiku #247: a carpet of snow / keeping me from going close / to the ocean's edge

dark clouds menacing
– I doubt we shall reach shelter
before the deluge

Haiku by Raymond Cobley https://soundcloud.com/ray_cobley

The basis of this track is a recording of a thunderstorm made a couple of months back. The rhythm tracks are generated solely from that storm recording and you can hear the original sounds of thunder and rain in the background, throughout the track. Enjoy!

A collection of 300 of his works entitled The Essence of Modem Haiku was published by Mangajin Inc in 1933.
