Rain is unwelcome
Until the sun is that guest
That stays way too long

Bruce Lee and The God of War: Kuan Ti
It starts with love.. The Power to the God Of War and Wealth Walk into a Chinese restaurant (even in Oklahoma, USA), a Chinese police station, a kung fu martial arts studio or even a Chinese temple and you often see a red faced warrior holding a heavy quan-do (spear like weapon).

Love this metaphor - ha ha!
Oh! I really love how you did this one. I usually think of rain being the guest that overtstays, but I like your perspective on this. :)
Guilty as charged, lol! Call me weird but I don't like the wet and noisy nature of the rain. And I would only find rain acceptable when the heat is unbearable, lol
Where would we be without either or? good writing Paul
Fantastic!!!
oh, I love this. Well done.
Very impactful and wonderfully written. Great image too!!
Great haiku! But unless it's a drought, the sun never stays too long, in my humble opinion lol
