raindrops (haiku)

love falls like raidrops
and puddles around my feet.
my rainboots stay dry.

I'm kind of new here. But, I just wanted to say that that is an incredibly deep 13 words. I love it. :)

ah, the boots would be trust,
the puddles would be lust,
and the falling of the rain
but upon your head 'twould touch.

i admire this haiku and add that you should throw periods to end lines 2 and 3 because the pause helps the poem.
