in a cascade of ocean

Echoes After Midnight
The porch light flickered at 10:32 PM when Lena first noticed it. Not a full failure—just a hesitation, like a breath caught mid-thought. She watched it from the kitchen window, coffee cooling in her hands, wondering if it was the bulb or something heavier settling into the house.

A splash of whimsy in so few words! I can see her twirling in the downpour ✨
You’ve drenched me with this one. But oh boy does the water feel nice, and even a mermaid too. I wish they exist, but it’s just as good to pretend they do. And this haiku helped me reach that kind of ecstasy. Well done Colleen, another fantastic Haiku ♥️🤗
This made me smile. I've always loved mermaids hehehehe
