The rain does not come So fruits wither on the vine Now harvest undone. #Haiku

People often whine Seeking blessings from the sky Summer sun does shine. #Haiku

By God’s own design The summer dog shines brightly When with sun aligned. #Haiku

Each today he toils Each tomorrow it renews ’Til his final rest. #Haiku

Impressing the herd By the attire he dons Sheep don't see the wolf. #Haiku

The longest day passed Bring summer’s arrival Days of sand and sun #Haiku

When fire lights the sky From bombs bursting in the air Independence nears. #HaikuWednesday

As Spring fades away Under the blistering sun Summer does appear. #HaikuWednesday

To nature’s delight, Trees blossom and flowers bloom, Under vernal light, #HaikuWednesday

With apologies to KC and the Sunshine Band Keep it coming, love Don’t stop it now, don’t stop it Keep it coming, love #HaikuWednesday

All must heed the call The undiscovered country Will wait for none. #HaikuWednesday

Inflation rises Political compromise Empty promises. #HaikuWednesday

Disinformation When it’s defined by viewpoint Words are meaningless. #HaikuWednesday

A mist in the air Moisture covers everything With dew drops of love #HaikuWednesday

’Tis a fool’s errand To go chasing after gold Glitter fades away #HaikuWednesday

Words said in anger No matter how justified Lead to nothing good. #HaikuWednesday

Stuck in yesterday His snare to catch tomorrow Will remain empty #HaikuWednesday

Lies he told himself For ill-gotten gains of wealth Trades his moral health #HaikuWednesday

Time is man’s folly, The gods remain unimpressed, By hours gained or lost. #HaikuWednesday

At this time, we wait For Persephone’s release And Demeter’s love #HaikuWednesday
