Region of Famine

Thirsty shadow crawls, While the tree reaches for rain; Earth cracks from the drought.

Sad haiku here Raul but, you described it well, we haven't had rain in at least 3 months. Very dry and hot here.

I like the tree reaching for rain ... and how is my friend today ... I see the master still toils at excellence.
