Evelyn Judy Buehler Poet Haiku

Notes About The Poem

Fever

desert blooms at noon
days of drought in the deep south
when love first ignites

a summer heat wave
quickly melting ice cream cones
wild activity

the long torrid nights
a profuse early blooming
sun's constant presence

Victor Buhagiar December 27, 2021 at 11:22 PM I believe there is a song called fever a long time ago. You portray hot days very well. Kudos to you. Evelyn Judy Buehler December 28, 2021 at 11:11 AM You're right-there is an old song called Fever. Thank you so much for your thoughts. :)

Gershon Wolf December 27, 2021 at 7:37 PM You've taken me back a ways here, Evelyn. I remember open porches on hot summer Midwest nights, always wondering how my grandmother in Houston, TX survived down there before a/c. Thanks, gw Evelyn Judy Buehler December 28, 2021 at 11:19 AM You're very welcome. There's nothing like summer when the thermometer rises. It's a challenge even in the north. But it's nice to imagine those days in wintertime. :=)
