hot summer days
no power needed —
baking cookies
in the sun

.

.

hot summer days —
relief as the sun sets
crickets
tuning their strings

.

.

hot summer days
happy cat sleeping
on toppled box fan

.

.

hot summer days
spring blossoms gone —
trees blooming now
with butterflies

.

.

hot summer days
chirping crickets pull in
the evening cool

.

.

hot summer days
curled in bed of violets
ebony cat

.

.

hot summer days
worms tunnel deeper
underground

.

.

hot summer days
tree frogs sing
deep in the shade

.

.

hot summer days
frog
jumps in the lake
water splash

.

.

hot summer days
the sun eats
the shadows

.

.

hot summer days
the patio glistens
with broken sprinkler rain

.

.

hot summer days
napping cat
curled tight
into
the shade

.

.

hot summer days
floating clouds
drag whispers of shade

.

.

hot summer days
hidden
under the oleander
shadow grey cat

.
