SUMMER HAIKU

Adelaide,
These are wonderful. I can even feel the warmth of the sun in the last poem. I see you have been writing for many years. You have perfected your art!
Thank you. We have, at last, had a few honest summer days, sun and no rain.
And I hope you continue to enjoy many more beautiful and sunny days. I am in California and it is a rare occurrence to get rain in the summer. Many would welcome it!
