Mid July (4 Haiku) by Leonard M Hawkes (1)
Rust-dust-green maple;
Flare of half-bloomed fireweed;
Morning autumn light.
(2)
Heat, dust, withered green;
Sunflowers, dry brome, fireweed;
Autumn's long shadow.
(3)
Fall in morning light;
Sunflowers dance in withered brome;
I'll dust the squash plants.
(4)
Brownish tinge at dawn;
Dry blazing heat by high noon;
Red sunset--wildfire.
