Premium MemberSCORCHING SUMMER


       Heat waves run : Scorching summer ! Sizzling Sun !
       Eyes burn : Weary farmer.
       Strong rays hitting hot hammer.
       Blazing heart ignites amour.

Premium MemberThe Life-Giving Downpour

The sun, a tyrant, reigns with scorching might, 
Days bleed together, a suffocating night.

My soul parched, I yearned for a cleansing rain, 
To wash away sorrow and ease the sun's pain.

A tremor in the air, a whisper on the breeze, 
The clouds gather close, promising sweet release.

The first drops fall, a melody so sweet, 
A gentle caress on the parched earth's cracked feet.

The sky erupts, a cathartic release, 
Washing away sorrow, granting sweet, cool peace.

The earth drinks deeply, its thirst at last quenched, 
With a sigh of relief, the world finally refreshed.

Laughter mingles with the drumming rain, 
A joyous celebration, a cleansing refrain.

From my window's perch, a vibrant scene unfolds,
Leaves glistening green, a story yet untold.

A collective sigh, a balm for the weary soul, 
Hope blossoms anew, as the storm makes us whole.

For in this downpour, a truth we all see, 
We are one with the earth and the creatures that be.

Premium MemberScorching Similarity


Fire blazes the forest
Scorched birds fly away to build new nest
Ashes settle in seared history to dowse and rest.
Anger burns the mind
Brazen thoughts flare to find revenge blind
Serene sanity makes singed senses calm and kind.

Premium MemberA Better World

Love grows deep within one's heart
Let us all just come together instead of growing further apart
We must not allow hatred to become the norm
Let's send out waves of warmth and happiness to weather the storm
If we all just work together we can make the world a better place
We only have one choice to make for the survival of the human race
A better world awaits if we could just stomp out negativity along the way
People you interact with smile at them and tell them to have a nice day
Bureaucracy and constant red tape stop things from getting done
Someone might want to ask the Egyptians how the pyramids got build in the scorching sun
Working together is the only recipe for success
A surefire way for getting us out of this mess
We have all been given the greatest gift that being life itself
Let's pick up the pieces and put them back on the shelf

scorching summer

           sizzling sun to burn,
                  ambient dry : birds don’t fly~
                                      sky turning auburn.  

                  no clouds: heat -wave blown.
                              scorching heat inviting drought~
                                                 earth prays for rains.

A Presage

The scorching sunbeams
Envelop this atmosphere
In no time, for sure,
As if Nature is about
To blow her bugle of war.

Premium MemberRangy, Scorching, and Filthy

Golden waves sway in a strange sky to create a new shade.
With bare feet, cross a shroud's path, but no one is aware.
Summer starts as scarlet hues salute a mottled promenade.
This image has gold sparkle and blue padded birds there.

Premium MemberScorching 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.

Premium MemberThe Scorching Summer Sun

THE SCORCHING SUMMER SUN 

Heat waves are burning breaches through my skin,
Touching my soul and melting me from within,
I dissolve in a puddle of dark brown liquid, 
Swimming in my salty sweat like a squid,

The sun is too hot for me to bear it,
If it were possible, I would not spare it,
Now I am at the Sol's receiving end,
How do I stop His flames, how do I defend?

The sultry sun is igniting my frame,
I swelter under his scorching scalding flame,
The torrid hot ball tortures me to tears,
I can't stand his fiery frying warmth that sears,

Perspiring heavily under the summer sun,
I cannot stand or walk, while he is having fun.

Scorching Summer and a Prayer

O God 
I surrender to You
completely I admit my defeat 

it's my declaration 
You, the almighty 
the creator of entire universe with time as well as space 

But it's true 
You have a love; 
by the love You created Your Bosom Friends 

O’ it was beautiful 
when none and nothing was there 
where You and Your loving Friends were

Nowadays 
I'm the surrendered man 
forget You on the living greedy lane 
Forgive me; I, the sinner 
on behalf of Your Friends 
forgive me 
I cannot tolerate even Your merciful hot 

O' God
this is summer
the sun, giant burner 
though from Your mercy 
knowing that ask from You a little peace 
Please, for the sake of Your Friends 
give us peaceful coolness

Premium MemberScorching

Let the fire burn,
scorching; 
Let the intensity flourish, 
Let yourself come undone; 
Feel your heart beat again;
I can color the stars in your eyes,
drink paradise;
Such a small taste
leaves me hungry for another moment,
another spark;
Cinders that invade me 
they ignite the floor;
I am enveloped, charred;
The smoke led me straight to you; 
What’s it like to succumb to a muse?
I’m dying to touch that truth; 
Under my skin like a wildfire;
Slowly speeding up,  
then aching  to a crawl; 
tip my chin up, I freeze
Your everything has brought me to my knees. 
So I am left to burn faster, harder
Scorching.
