Soft thunder grumbling
Storms waking up this morning
Full of needed rain
Sunshine and blue skies
Like a hot burning fire
Day starting to bake

I wrote this one this morning when my son and I went out for a walk to the park. I thought we went early, but by the time we got home at 9:15 we were sweating buckets. The site A Prompt Each Day had the word “fire” as the prompt for the day, and I thought this Haiku would fit that prompt perfectly.
Coffee in my cup
Soft Sunday morning sunrise
Heat wave on the way

About to get blasted with heat down here in N.C. – four-day stretch next week for highs: 99, 100, 98, 99. And that isn’t even factoring in the heat index. Guess summer his here.
How do you deal with the heat?
Me, just stick inside where it is cool.
A barren parched land
Drops of rain falling softly
Quenching nature’s thirst
Heat wave coming on
Days filled with ninety degrees
Starting to cook here
Bird’s singing outside
Happy for the rain last night
Time for a quick bath

Big storm last night, mostly liquid, no thunder or lightning, but the showers were so heavy at times that I thought the roof was going to cave in. Woke me up for a bit.
As a sidebar, I have started a new blog with a couple of buddies of mine. It is a blog about trying to be a Christian and walking with our faith each day. Tough to do. Here’s the link: unitedbythree.wordpress.com
Thanks for reading and following.
In the lily pads
Dragon flies and tiny frogs
Enjoy the day

Jimmy Buffett tunes
Warm weather and soft breezes
Smooth and easy day

I honestly never tire of this song.
Splashing and crashing
Over the rocks you tumble
Peaceful sounds you make

Had a great morning with my son and parents watching easy breezy waterfalls. Thought I might post something about it.
