It is not a blue Monday in Las Vegas

mostly cloudy day
sun peeks through a patch of blue
bright clouds reflect light

It is cooler this afternoon then it was last Monday afternoon. All day the clouds have covered the sky. This morning, pools of water stood in my driveway; they were leftovers from Sunday’s thunderstorms.

pools of rainwater
dry slowly on cloudy days
a slight breeze blowing

This morning a breeze blew through the neighbor’s olive and oak trees. The dead limb on the pine tree in my front yard remains attached to the tree. I have to find someone to cut the limb off or cut the tree down. At this point, the only thing I am worried about is finding the money for the next power bill.

humid summer days
remind me of Oklahoma
I prefer a dry heat

It is not a blue Monday in Las Vegas. I am not as depressed as normal. I have eaten a good breakfast and lunch. I have written three Haiku for this entry, all though I am not sure about the third haiku because of the syllable count.

Monday is not blue
all though blue patches shine through
the bright white cloud cover
