intimate as night
river idles in its bed
cataract waiting

You and I were thinking along the same lines! I like the conciseness of your haiku!

I love the latent energy of your haiku. That waterfall is just around the bend, I think. :)

There's a shock coming, there, I think.
Excellent words.

That word cataract has amazing, critical energy at that point in your poem! Delightful haiku!

These are definitely the dog days of summer, no?

Beautifully descriptive haiku! I like the way you contrast idleness with a cataract just waiting to happen.

A slow march to a violent leap, eh? Nice. I like "idles" best. Good word.

This one left me rather contemplative. Wonderful contrasts.

What a surprising end to the haiku. It feels like a sudden bend in the river.
