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. June 25, 2020 5th place, "Summer Haiku's" Poetry Contest Sponsored by Tania Kitchin; judged on 6/28/2020.
