Some Summer Haiku

Submitted by scribbler on Fri, 2011-07-08 09:13

Mid day heat shimmers
Over a close cut hay field
In heart of summer

Beneath a large oak
Biting breaths of soggy air
July in the south

Dew spangled dawn
Disappears after sunrise
Becomes humid air

Bird pants on deck rail
In the late afternoon heat
craving cooler days
