I know some coast highway in France, where it is hard to drive!!! But in the part here i live (north of Lyon), many time where fog at beginning of the day is very strong! But i love this feeling to be alone and with a high danger, because you don't know where are the other cars and trucks. You must take care!!!

The most mystical and thrilling souvenir I have is not fog, but sand storm in desert in sahara! Similar to fog, except more mystical and worst because you have sand all in your face, your eyes, your mouth...

I waited your comment with anxiety and I am very glad of this one, thank you Vee.
For fun, I have found an anagram of the first stanza : "Realy tip in frog"!

You are on the right track normally haiku is two lines about emotions and one line about nature, which basically a description of a natural scene that relates to the emotions felt.
if one is sad, then the scene will be of winter, cold, snow, ice, wind, bare trees, limbs.
if the feelings are about love or happiness, then the scene would be spring flowers, blooms, birds, streams.
I'm actually enjoying reading your haiku and the wonderful progress..:)

I love this quote of Nicolas Boileau (French poet 1636-1711) from "l'Art Poétique" (the translation is probably not good) :
"More haste less speed; and, without losing heart,
"Twenty times on the job put back your work:
"Polish it ceaselessly and re-polish it;
"Sometimes add, and often erase"
For poetry and Haiku, it is needed.

Wise quote indeed.
It is a constant work in progress and what we perceive now as being perfect we not find it so later on and that's due to the fact that we are evolving creatures, constantly learning and growing.
