Chilling. Reminds me of a verse in the Bible -- Luke 10:18 And He said unto them, "I saw Satan fall like lightning from heaven..."
Best wishes with an entry that is "charged".

The last line line only has three syllables. I have read the rules and you are justified. This is definitely about Lightning . There is good imagery. Good luck in your contest.

Comment from Irish Goat
contemporary haiku structure with under 17 syllables (15) and minimalist capitalization and punctuation. 5-6-3 count in 9 words describes the thunder and lightning in sensory terms the reader can feel, see and hear. Well done

This is an excellent haiku poem
and a great response to the writing prompt.
Good connection between the first two lines.
Good last line.
The picture complements it well.
Best wishes for the contest.

Good use of descriptive words to convey the theme of lightning. It is a rather dramatic occurrence and a bit scary. Excellent picture to illustrate. Good luck in the contest. Faye

Comment from Preston McWhorter
Hi, Friend,
You have written a superior verse in the English language format based on the Japanese language haiku. It is less than 17 syllables and contains an ah ha moment calling thunder an "electric sonic boom"--an excellent metaphor. Good luck in the contest.
Your friend and colleague,
Preston

Comment from Domino 2
There is only one writer I know of on site who regularly promotes 'shortie' writes so highly in contests, and I'm grateful for the 'reward'. :-)
You DO have an excellent knack at these, and this one is very powerful in its drama and personification.
Best wishes, Ray
