eastern sun drips wet humidity in August lingering at night The California sun in August is hot, but shade provides relief. The sweat of a brow can be cooled by iced lemonade that sustains passions. On the west coast it’s never too hot for passionate kisses. Here I want to stick with you instead of being sticky as a byproduct of the weather. After the sun sets it cools enough for us to make things hotter.
A quick haibun writing prompt on August from Frank over at dVerse.

Exquisite! I love this line, especially: “Here I want to stick with you instead of being sticky as a byproduct of the weather.” Well-done!

Ooh, love the wordplay in this. It’s beautiful, sweet, and deliciously sensual. You can feel the warmth and closeness throughout, it really is romantic.

As someone who has experienced weather too hot to touch another I was trying to capture the counter experience.

Palm Springs in August is too hot–120 degrees during the day, and cooling to 100 at night. I lived in Redlands for several years and worked in PS. But yes, romance can erupt during a heat wave, or in an igloo.
