but that is just me.
The 'my' is in keeping with the spirit of haiku.
Haiku's basis is human observation/comparison/interaction of/to/with nature.
Of course a "my" is optional; but haiku (like any other form of art and
especially one based on language) is the product of a human observer.
Real egotism is the pretense that it isn't.
