essential to life
the little space under my hat
enjoying the coolness
(c) Basho (1676)
Today, we have a brilliant inspirational haiku by Kristjaan
such a hot day
my shadow needs to cool down
under the willow
my haiku:
looking for a tree
to shelter man’s silly head
the oak’s dying gasps
the oak’s dying gasps
man rests his weary ass
on a wooden bench
on a wooden bench
man grumbles under the heat
looking for a tree

The Eclectic Eccentric 
Any shade will do on a steamy hot day! And the heat does tend to make one grouchy!
haha i should know. here, it’s sweltering.
Offhand, I’d say your character is a malcontent! 🙂
yup, like most men, looking for a tree while he’s sitting on it. lol
Even a little spot of shadow will do … such a hot day …
seeking shadow
on this hot summer day –
longing for winter
true. unfortunately, all the trees have been turned to benches,lol then men grumble 🙂
I was just going to ask if the bench was made of oak.
Great cascade KZ 🙂
if only one could transform it back to a tree lol thanks
That man needs a cold beer.. 🙂
This left me smiling. Maybe the grumpy one could carry a fan?
I can only feel sympathy for this guy!
