lazy heat radiates from
red-hot petals; with soft strum
of doing nothing, I drum
on soil full of life's hum.
I wrote this, my first tanaga, for #the-haiku-club's 2010 Old Haunts Contest.

I've been thinking about my yard at home a lot; I'll spend at least an hour every spring day just sitting outside enjoying the flowers.
I took the photo above at one such time. You can find it here: [link]
:)

EDIT: This won second place in the contest! Thank you so much! -w-

I feel the sun in this piece. And you didn't overdo the end rhyme. Congrats on 2nd place.
