I really liked this. You are truly mastering the art of Hai Ku if I do say so myself!

Thanks, Kyle. Apparently you never master Haiku, it's just fun trying.

:) Another good haiku, Line. I'm glad you can write haiku so well. Dwindling summer days might not make many happy, but I don't like the heat and the humidity that summer brings...at least in my part of the world. Hugs

So apt--and so jarring, in such a descriptive, true-summer way. REALLY, really like it. The pleasure here was (mostly) mine. :) gw
