Summer Takes a Tea Break

Torching of air paused
                                      Summer takes sips of mint tea
                                              Whispers of autumn

Hi Bernard, the cooling quality of mint cooling off summer and the hint of cool crisp autumn to come... An awesome haiku. I love it! It's more taste and feel than visual which is really cool! (No pun intended lol!) Enjoyed!!

Yes, I need to work on conveying with other senses more myself other than visual, and I see that you did that so fantastically!

Yeah, I guess this is more about conveying sensations than painting a picture. Thank you for your kind and insightful comments, Susan!! Much appreciated, as always :)
