Summer Day

summer day harlequin first light pinwheels of spinning color ~ lotus bloom opens muggy afternoons humid summer monsoon rains ~ birds sit in silence nightfall holds its breath as twilight slips into dusk ~ bright midnight stars yawn 8-6-21

Thank you dear friend! I love summer days. Haikus are a wonderful challenge - using key words to articulate pictures. This is truly a challenge for someone, like myself, blessed with the loquacious gene! So appreciative of your congratulations and your feedback that both motivates and inspires me Mala! Your messages are always a blessing for my day! Blessings and much love.
