Heat Poems - Poems about Heat

It was the first time I heard the dove’s low call— three minor notes stretched thin across a motionless prairie on a shimmering hot afternoon, the kind where even shadows try not to move.

The familiar heat shatters breezes into embers filtered through a stinging azure. So I sit back and wait. In...

Celebrating Pherzawl's Serenity I’ve fallen in love with Pherzawl’s gentle air, I’ve fallen in love where cool whispers dare. Though summer scorches lands both far and near, Though summer scorches, here the sky is clear. I’m dreaming of Delhi’s relentless blaze, I’m dreaming of Guwahati’s fiery haze. Hmarkhawlien and Silchar’s blazing heat, Hmarkhawlien and Silchar, I’m not missing that beat. But here, soft mist...

Intense thirst in the sweltering desert, yet, the emerald succulents still thrive; for surviving, often takes extra effort. Intense thirst in the sweltering desert; Then cool moon arrives, as if pressured. A beautiful, flowering cacti night, alive!

In the silence of autumn’s wonder, dancing Playing soft against my soul, unspoken light Writing poetry and peace in my heart, entrancing Birthed by stars and moon, who hold such insight Aware that every breath describes joy romancing Feelings warm and wild, pouring out hope to write. ...

Breath comes quick, my chest feels tight, A racing heart ignites the night. Sweat beads glisten, skin runs hot, Grateful flames in every thought. Fortune's kiss, a trembling gift, A weight I carried starts to lift. Relief, a river, rushing fast, The storm is gone, the fear has passed. My pulse erupts, it pounds, it sings, The joy of life in simple things. I’m dizzy...

Cold air whispered through the night. All grounds are covered in white. As the flower stood tall and bright, a beacon of color in the moonlight. Feeling the heat of the sun, Warmth spread my gaze...
