Don't you mean "watah" hahahah I just love how you Brits pronounce that word!

First of all.....The creativity behind this haiku is wonderful!!! I was so confused at the title!! Holy water, I was thinking baptism, or something church related, or anything other than rain....what a great way to describe rain, coming from the heavens, hence it being Holy..epic!

Also, liked the use of seven, for those who don't know the number seven is holy and biblical....so unique.....

the creativity here is what makes this beautiful to me! Well done bud!

Lol Chels:P

I love your choice of words, and the description.
Really refreshing piece, great job:)

I adore this Haiku!

I like the little tongue twister of glitter silver... at least it was for me, lol. Also the addition of 7 was a great touch, I thought that it meant holy and Chels confirmed that! lol

Great piece!

This is beautiful. I too thought it would be more a religious poem and not so much of a beauitful nature one. So well done.

Tony, this is a fantastic write. I like it, although I would change one minor thing in my opinion; the word the in the second line is nothing but a filler word. In my opinion, I think this Haiku would sound better if the second line was perhaps worded like this, "pavements glittery sliver,"

So it would read...

Clouds evacuate
pavements glittery sliver,
seven colours shine

Cute :-) 5/5 for you!

I see you took the word the out like I suggested but now that line has a syllable count of 6 instead of 7 which is why I also suggested you change the word glitter to glittery.

Love the rain. Love this. Seven colors shine is more to me like a rainbow shining after the rain... Or during it, sometimes. Not sure if that's what you meant anyway, but rainbows generally have 7 colors..
Anyway, lovely haiku. Means different things to different people and that's always good. :)

I love poems about rain. The visual of the rainbow And glittery silver were just wonderful

I love this poem. There seems to be always something magical about a rainbow or at least thats how I see it. 5
