Dew on dry, brown grass
Evaporates so quickly,
Save precious water.
Author notes
Australia is in drought, and water restrictions are in place where I live so every single drop is precious

Hey Lilly *hugs and kisses*. I really suck at writing haiku's, I mean I myself don't much like them...I loved it how you asked people to save water, I h ave read huge poems on this very concept, you have said the same them in a ver short manner... i like it
take cares and have a nice time my dear friend.. just keep it up.... your humble little friend..

great haiku!
wow, thats an awesome piece! Haikus take such work to come out so beautifully! very meaningful to the situation to! -
Great enviromnetally progressive haiku. welldone in a beautiful reminder to all how precious our favorite resource is. We use up too much water aws it is to keep our green lawns in places that those grasses cannot live on their own.
thanks again for your message of conservation. from a green member.

yes the water restrictions are severe & lots of farmers are going broke. it's sad.
thanks for sharing this poem. perhaps we should all drink the dew off the grass - that's an interesting solution you are implying here.
best wishes,
myron.
