Summer Rain – a troiku

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.
