Way Station
The shadow of an ironwood tree offers relief from the heat in Yuma County, Arizona.
Desert way station—
I rest in a shady place
before moving on.

How fortunate to find a shady place in the desert!
Perfection in your haiku ….. sigh.
I’m haikuin’ today, too, Teach!
Sounds good to me, reminds me of growing up on the farm and doing farm work in the hot. Thanks, MMT. 🙂

Welcomed shade in a desolate landscape!
One would definitely need shade in the desert. I can feel the relief.
the peace of this offering of tiny cooling words. the shelter of a welcome shadow. thank you for this way station of love and rest.
Ah yes rest too is necessary
Have a good weekend
much❤love
Thank goodness for way stations along the way. The haiku is restful
The shadow is amazing, but those puffy clouds…..
This sanctuary, in word and image, provides respite… all the way over here. Thank you dear MMT!
Shade makes an excellent way station. My pampered corgi certainly thinks so, and often takes a moment (or 10) to rest under a shady tree during his regular walks.
It looks like the only shady place in miles… enjoy the rest before you move on and wear a hat!
