Hot day 32ºC. Rain soon?
Late summer
Summer doesn´t want to
take leave. Sun´s winking in above
Below creatures bask!
Enjoyed :) Hoping the humidity is mild. Praying for rain. About 0ºC just before dawn here.

Transport
Waiting for the car
that will take all my books a-
way.Empty house?
Going digital completely ? If I was allowed to make a rule re: moving it would be that one's books stay behind for the new tenant and then one would inherit the books from the previous tenant in the new house/flat/apartment. Brand new digs (no earlier tenant) would be full scale perusal and purchase at ye olde used booke store :) ... and digital of course. If one didn't like the literary taste of a previous tenant then a donation to the public library would be in order and full scale perusal and purchase at ye olde used booke store :)

Lol. I like your rules specially as they democratize reading. In Germany, they have that, but at a more modest scale I learned from some friends. They have public bookcases there: people separate regularly books they don´t want any more and shelve them there and take other books they want home.
My going digital isn´t quite voluntary. I loved my books, but I got an insect problem and never got quite rid of it. And so I got used to digital reading. Plus, importing physical books to my country has become complicated.

Here am I, sitting

Solitude then :)
We have tiny neighborhood lending libraries too (kiosks?), outside on corners here and there. Our local library accepts books which they either leave outside to take, or arrayed in a $1.00 USD room, with CD's too (I picked up a book for $1.00 on Eternal Life from many perspectives at our last poetry event :) )

I have started another pspsps that needs a little more refining before making its debut as a 5-7-5 Haiku; the following is in the raw 5-6-5, and maybe its final form... and since you have pspsps 2 I'll title mine with pspsps 3 :) :

AAII! Can´t imagine a squirrel scolding. Met one only once, very tame eating nuts from my hand in the Central Park-NY.
After the storm
A feeble sunshine
Park, dogs, barks, puddles.
Life's resumed.
Very nice :)

"hordeolum blues". Lol + Oh my! Just learned a new word. "Hordeolum" at least isn´t dangerous, unless it has to do with the new Covid variant arturo+something.
Wishing quick improvement:

No poems today. Waiting until you get better. My eyesight is not that fine these days either
Enjoyed the haiku but not the subject.
Rainy autumn day
Empty landscapes
Bouts of wet indifference
Muffled sounds of life
