Habanero – A Haiku

From the Amazon

Hot, spicy, ingredient.

A true taste of fire.

Songwriter – A Haiku

Simplest way to play.

Major, Minor, Melody.

Lyrics on the way.

Here is a haiku that captures the feel of Texas In August. It is my least favorite month in our wonderful state.

Welcome to Texas In August

Wet humidity.

A blistering heat daily.

Mosquitos feeding.

Browsing through my photos, I came across this macro photo I took of some seriously parched earth. It inspired me to write a haiku. Texas went through a monster drought two years ago and has not recovered to this day. The rain has been coming, but we need so much more. Remember! Water is life!

Parched Earth

The ground cracks open.

Life around dries up and dies.

Water the savior.
