green leaves shadows dance
sunshine blinds curious eyes
dripping popsicle

Great haiku. How well I remember hot Southern summers and the refreshing joy of ice cold popsicles. I have not had a popsicle in over 20 years. Enjoyed this fine write and the memories it evoked! Thanks

Donna, though the first line had two things running together, lines two and three were SO amazing. They were perfect haiku lines. Congrats for your third place win in my contest.
