three weeks without rain
the river bares its secret
parched and sun-dried soul
2019.07.25: wild shot
wings flapping nearby
shooting blind with slow trigger
Lady Luck smiling
2019.07.24: respite
cool breeze this morning
short reprieve from summer heat
savoring each breath
2019.07.23: Sirius rising
dog days of summer
everyone waits for turn
shade under stray clouds
2019.07.22: dread
red mountain of dirt
taller than excavator
the pit not so deep
the guilt of things we have done
usually larger than the deed
Longing For Water
