Miserable Hot Summer

Sad unmoving air Humidity wilts flowers Animals search for water Sauna-like setting Barren ground is parched, dry, cracked Miserable hot summer

I personally would rather sweat than freeze. From this descriptive write, I would say you object to the summer!

I usually love it, not this summer. This summer it has been so hot and stagnating, I am tired of it.

Iowa, right? I used to live there as you know. Remind me what part you are near? I was by Quad Cities! I enjoyed seeing this one reminding me of that terrible humidity.

I am in Kansas City, Kansas, so we have less water right now than Iowa.

Deftly done poetry, Caren. Succinct and superb. I enjoyed reading this. Although, I feel for the folks in Fresno, Cali. 19 straight days of above 100 degrees. Whew. Now that's caliente hot. Just like your poem. Love and hugs.

It is the humidity that makes it so unbearable. Soon- it will be fall. Try to stay cool, as much as possible. ~ Brandy

I know Caren, we have it here too, just a few showers wouldn't go amiss

I have stopped watering, it's just too crazy, and does not last. I am still giving the bird baths water though.
