The Things You Do For Love

Ah, here comes the sun
Just at the break of autumn
Indian summer

My whole soul reacts
embracing the sun's warm rays
smiling deep inside

The question remains
How a desert sun lover
now lives in the rain

But can't worry now
There is playing to be done
This day while sun shines

    What a great picture to go with that haiku! Enjoy the sun while you have it! I'm soaking it in here too because I know that fall and winter are going to creep their ugly heads in around here way too soon.
    Not sure why I live in New England. I hate snow.

    and lovely new header picture on your blog. It's huge and takes my full screen but I absolutely love it!


    I hope you are starting to feel better now. Has the coughing been reduced?

    Ah, Jenn, I think you've accurately depicted how my best friend, late of California and now hailing from New Zealand, feels. I shall send her this because, yeah, you're right.

    Oh, it's so full of great imagery! I can feel the sun baking on my arms, even though I'm sitting here looking outside at the wind thrashing the trees around and threatening to take away my internets.... :)
