drinking in humidity
and transforming heat
into color
The August Garden
Hot In Cold
chili peppers
in the snow
intensifying their heat
On A Hot Summer Day
the watering can
builds confidence
amongst the flowers
Shelter From The Blistering Sun
our beloved tree
a great green umbrella
offering shade and sanctuary
Blazing New Day
cold heat
a red dawn
new day’s passion play
August Sun
reeds and grasses
illumined by heat
green fire on the water
Thunder Sky
the resounding clap
of heat and cold
colliding
Heat Collection
pools
of sunshine
gather in the meadow
Exhalation
after the rain
the heat is tamed
the day resumes
Dunes
seeking
heat and blue
white and cold found
Defiance
blazing colors
defy the drought
and celebrate the heat
Shine
August sun
the heart of heat
lighting everything from within
Shade
Take haven
on the hot days
under a green canopy.
