Doesn't "orange" add one syllable too many?  Also, I've just never seen an orange sun, except maybe at dawn or sunset.

What about "dry summer sun".  That would lead into "waiting for the rain"?  Otherwise, I'd change last line, adding maybe another color.

I like the flow of orange summer sun though and the orange sun makes sense to me . . . could also say "hot orange sun" to keep the summer feeling. "Bright orange sun" "Burnt orange sun" "Fierce orange sun" 

I am championing the orange sun, but you should probably say "dry summer sun"
