Haiku

Little drops of dew

glisten on each blade of grass

The mercy of God

I wonder why you chose the word ‘mercy’? No matter–it is the perfect word for this graceful haiku.

  Hi Anita, My thoughts were on the drought. Sometimes with no rain comes no dew. I Kings 17:1.

I had similar thoughts about fog this month–any moisture in the air seemed like mercy distilled after the drought. Though your words were put more beautifully!
