For Frank Tassone’s weekly haikai challenge.
water falls
swallow soars
above creeping flowers
yellow of trefoil
and waterfall blue of speedwell
cascade of colour
creaming the gold of summer
dew-spangled at morning
mist silver
by the light of the new moon

So beautiful Jane.
Thank you, Holly 🙂
You are so welcome!

Very colorful, like the painting.
Thanks. Not as colourful as spring, a bit charred at the edges, but bright.
A welcome respite from my 101 F this afternoon 🙂
We’ve only reached 100°F once this year. It’s been a lot cooler than previous summers. Mid 90s is fine by me.
I’ll take mid 70’s mid 80’s… with an ocean breeze… now I just need to live by an ocean, which I don’t 🙂
It is all in what one is used too. To someone from Alaska 40 F is warm, maybe too hot.
It depends what you have to do as well. This house stays cool even when it’s over 100° outside, but if I had to take public transport, do fieldwork or anything physical I wouldn’t last long!
Water falls and cascades of colors–it sounds beautiful and refreshing. 😀 Perfect illustration, too.
I’m dreaming. It’s so hot and baking dry!
The illustration is sensational, of course 🙂
A pleasant dream. 😀
🙂
Cascade of color…and I can feel the refreshing coolness right now. And of course the painting…(k)
The colours are all still here, but the water is just a trickle now, so dry. I’m looking forward to the rain, whenever that’s for.
We keep having these short intense thunderstorms which cools nothing off. It is keeping things green though.
There has to be some point in them.
I love the evocative imagery here, Jane! 🙂
Thank you, Frank 🙂
My pleasure, Jane! 😇
