Beata Agustin Poet Haiku

Scorching Summer

midst blazing sun rays
verdant landscapes turn arid 
parched lands lay barren

summer* heat scorching 
luscious vegetation dries
awaiting rain fall

heaven's blessings yearned**
down pour of water crystals
God's grace flowing down

*Psalm 32:4 … Moisture is turned into the drought of summer.
**Third haiku added (June 29, 2020) after contest was judged.
