noonday heat
a butterfly seeks rest
in my shadow

My goodness! We both brought the summer’s heat into our haiku. Have a wonderful weekend, Celestine!
How nice. Stay safe, MMT. 🙂
Such is nature’s ways. Sometimes our life provide shade or rest for others.
Exactly! Good to see you here. 🙂
We have been so spoiled the last two weeks with cool days and rain that I am grateful for these wonderful days. Knowing that there are still more heat and humid filled day in the future I’m grateful for this time. Thank you for this lovely haiku!

I’ve been lucky enough to see some Monarchs this year. And I even took a photo of a Tigerswallowtail butterfly on my butterfly bush!
Look up American Dagger Moth Caterpillar – I’ve never really noticed them before and now within two days I’ve seen four of them! I wrote about the first one’s here – there’s an image from the net at the post Acronicta americana
Eventually I’ll get those images into prints for my grands. I had made them an insect book.
I like the idea of your shadow helping nature 🙂
I hope you are doing well my friend. ((Hugs))
