SENSATIONAL HAIKU WEDNESDAY
HEAT
I see the heat haze
Feel the road burn under me
Touch hair soaked with sweat

* Written during an Australian mid-winter!

WELCOME ADDITION
The flowers arranged so lovingly
For everyone in the church to see.
The yellows, russets, greens and reds,
Catching eyes and turning heads.
But when a light was added to
This already perfect view,
The shadow also was created,.
Then, bless my soul, another light,
Doubled-up on the delight.
Shadow on shadow and flower on flower,
All to improve the shining hour.

Your haiku perfectly captures what we're experiencing here in Kansas in July!
Lovely penned haiku describes America's summer ~~ thanks, ^_^ (A Creative Harbor)
heat is beautiful to see but, gross to feel!
the road's heat-haze - great image.....but the church flowers - incredible observation and well-rhymed
I was thinking the same thing as Jennifer, but I'm in Iowa! It has been a retched hot summer!
very nice Haiku
A lot about the weather with the word 'heat'! You make it shine ;)
Good job on your heat haiku considering you're not even suffering in it! And I love your Welcome Addition - beautiful!
Nice Haiku :-)
