A Handful of Haiku: Laughter of the rain
Middle of July
Breathless days and sauna nights
Summer's lethargy
In their garden pool
Irises rise cool and tall
Like pastel water
Laughter of the rain
Crisp and clean like silver bells
Cool as lemonade
Larking breezes spread
The old secrets shadows tell
In idle gossip
