I know that cows and goats give less milk when they are stressed and that includes heat . And then I think about what they say, uncomfortable as a black dog on a hot sunny day…
This is very nice. We’re supposed to be getting a heatwave in Berlin starting tomorrow—but not as bad as previous ones. The way I read your haiku, it’s the fringes of the sun itself that are fraying…

Thanks Claudia….the heat is stressful for plants and people…not sure about other species but it probably is for them too.

Yes I’m sure they feel it…and more perhaps thinking about dogs…their sensitive paws and lungs and of course having to wear a coat all the time!

A very powerful haiku Janice, certainly so relevant to the Northern Hemisphere right now
