14 Aug: Short Verses from the Garden

Hostas leaves dry

Drought.
I bet
you never thought
such a blue sky
would send your eyeing mood
plunging.

      I know. I think it’s supposed to start cooling down tomorrow. Take care, Bump.

    :(. I empathise. 2019 has scarred me deeply.

      Most of it’s dead due to no rain for 3 months. Had some rain today but not nearly enough.
