Spring Volleyball - A Haiku

meandering thoughts
a  high, volleyball volleying
out of untied shoe

before hardwood floor bouncing
because of the net

dark haired
son to
toss up
midair

I dropped

Fiery red burns
Autumn orange
Army ants learn
How to hog Glen
High winged pigs

A cacophony of cheers
Sand sprays like fireworks
From feet, hands, ball, hair.

In a battle for the ages.

Am football,
You kick me I move;
To the direction

Harder you kick

Hear the bouncing of the balls--
Basketballs!
What a sound of merriment they cause when each ball falls!
How they echo, echo, echo,
Inside the gymnasium walls,

The body pillow
Next to me not
Embalmed but
Stuffed with
