Unfortunately this poem had too many syllables. Your first line had six. A common mistake with Haikus. Better luck next time

We are currently undergoing a storm here in the Netherlands.
My favorite weather, I love it!
Sadly, nature is paying it's toll though,
hence, this weeks Haiku, enjoy:
🌳 Fallen trees 🌳
Mother nature weeps
her children bow to their knees
as silent victims..

Such comfort is found
Lay here on the blood soaked ground
No one left around
I know they don't have to rhyme, but is just happened that way. Thank you very much for giving me the opportunity to turn some wayward wanderings into a haiku!
