Sizzling
Saguaro cacti, Kofa National Wildlife Refuge, Southern Arizona
desert afternoon
not even thin mist falling
sizzling is the way
~~ ~~ ~~
Even the cactus shadows are sweating!

Hot stuff.
There is always some way
I’d ask saguaro
on a sizzling afternoon
is the mist missed
Cheers!

I was going to play with “mist” and “missed,” but I missed my opportunity, thanks to your cleverness! 😉
It’s your bird-day? Happy day! 🙂 Those saguaro are such strange creatures. I always expect them to start walking about.
I can feel the heat coming from the ‘page’!
Sad situation, when the only moisture anywhere in sight is your own sweat. Still, beautifully captured, teacherman; I’m enjoying your desert sojourn.
The imagery of the cactus sweating conjured up a strange and amusing picture in my head. Love the haiku.
Great picture! Love the shadows!
Great photo … the haiku really tells it all!
I like a little heat 🙂
I can feel the heat and the dramatic landscape.
It’s a cool photo. The shadow shows us the shape of the cactus.
Great photo and … yes you can almost feel the heat of the desert ….
