#Haiku: Late Summer
mid-day heat stillness
sunlight creeping between leaves-
in late summer’s drought

Author’s Note: Although it is monsoon season, we have had no rain here in my part of Mesa. I can’t recall a dryer summer than this.

It’s odd, that that kind of heat freezes, locks itself in a stillness. The upper extremes are becoming familiars with lessons we aren’t ready to learn yet …

Nice to see a proper haiku that is actually written to a theme of nature. Drought has many shadows.
