after the storm
raindrops carry little rainbows
from your skin to mine
invitation to explore
hidden paths of the forest

* * *
how rare!
on leaving the mountain
the first eggplant

The following ones are my attempt to stay close to the same mood and spirit:

old oak-tree shade
nurtured in maze of roots
black summer truffle

double rainbow
arches across stormy sky
time to count blessings

Carpe Diem Haiku *Issa ”O cooling melons!”*
Our source of inspiration on Carpe Diem today is a haiku, written by Kobayashi Issa:
* * *
if anyone comes,
turn into frogs,
o cooling melons!

The following ones are my attempt not to wander too far away from the mood and spirit of the haiku above:
* * *
trail of cool droplets
rolling down ignited skin
-melon scented ice cubes
* * *
after the storm
bouncing through the flooded field
a watermelon
