July Challenge 2 'water'

Write a haiku, tanka or senryu using 'water' in the broadest sense: from the rush of a river to the drip of a tap, from the hiss of hail to the swell of an ocean.
Visiting writers of Japanese genre poetry are also welcome to post their work in the challenge.

  1. River at low tide
    a heron tiptoes across
    a rippled sunrise

    with curled edges
    he measures us
    against his great fish
    hooked from the swinging sea

  7. frost fern melt
    the afternoon sun
    on the window pane

  8. the gush
    of the storm drain
    bellows
    like the storm of thoughts
    in need of an outlet
