We've been sweltering down here for a couple of weeks now in 100 degree plus temperatures. The local paper sponsored a haiku contest, and here's my favorite:Forecast for Houston:
One hundred percent chance of
Cold margarita
The contest inspired me to write a few heat haiku of my own.
New grill is idle
No one will stand over it
Cold salad for dinner
Bea abandons her ball
Stop the presses y'all
Too hot to play fetch
Salvation is nigh
Houston hotter than Hades
Satan leaves town.
No one will stand over it
Cold salad for dinner

Stop the presses y'all
Too hot to play fetch
Salvation is nigh
Houston hotter than Hades
Satan leaves town.
