Late Summer
This haze
hides the mountain
and traps unpleasant heat
but I’m not yet choked by smoke from
the fires.

Not yet….It’s a problem here in North Thailand too – usually around March.😢
Thanks for reading and commenting.
I never imagined such smoky haze would be a part of summer. That looks very thick! Be safe.
Thank you.
I am so happy not having to feel that dreadful scent of fires.
Heartbreaking, to wonder who will be next. You told it well.
Thank you.
May there be no fires! You captured the late summer heat perfectly.
Thank you.
Stay safe! The smoke from wildfire can affect our health.
That’s something I’d forgotten about here in the UK, where the weather has cooled down and we’re getting quite a lot of rain, so no heath, moorland or forest fires, plus all the children are back at school. But now I have autumn fires to contend with, people burning garden rubbish and leaves. Stay safe, Maria.
I’m glad of that!
Nicely done.
Thank you.
Stay safe from the fire and smoke. A few weeks back the haze was bad here and the air quality was not good for outside activities.
