It's too friggin' hot to think...

And, now, we're getting air quality warnings because
Canada is on fire and the smoke is on its way to Ohio
and Michigan. Like soon. Today. And, it's extra crappy
smoke that we are supposed to avoid by staying inside.
That's great for those who have a/c. We do not.

I want summer to go away.

Reveal...

what poems do
is tell about 
you.
the you
who writes.
the you
who reads.
like it or not
we see
who you are.
like it
or not.

Haiku for you...

summer swelter is 
heavy on the leaves, almost
as if raindrops fell.                



sweet peonies fill
my eyes with beautiful pink 
feathers of petals.



the sun is shining
somewhere every day. Be glad
when it blesses you.
