after the summer heat
raindrops kissing my naked body
Ah! that coolness
Chèvrefeuille
after the summer heat
longs days in vanishing shade
a hopeful cloud
raindrops kissing my naked body
replacing dust and sweat
quenching deep thirst
Ah! That coolness
filling up empty fountains
bare feet in puddles

My response to Carpe Diem #1702 heat wave troiku
Today the theme is ‘heat wave’, which was promised but didn’t materialise in the UK, and the challenge is to create a troiku a haiku by Chèvrefeuille.
I’m such a Goldilocks. There’s this very brief time of year when I feel comfortable. Then I’m either too hot or too cold, but mostly too hot.

Me too! I had to push one of the cats off me during the night as I just couldn’t breathe for the heat! She wasn’t impressed.
