Haiku Friday: Thoughts of Summer

 

It's the heart of winter. Here in Minnesota, it has been down to -20 already, with more on the way. Which means we dream of summer now and then-- who doesn't? (I suppose people in San Diego). Anyways, that juxtaposition is inevitable.
 
So let's haiku about that this week-- the images, memories, and hopes of summer. Or, if you'd rather, you can just speculate what my dad is up to in the photo above.
 
Here, I will go first:
 
I crouch to the ground
Shrubs full of fat blueberries
Graze here, happy bear.
 
Now it is your turn! Just use the 5/7/5 syllable formula and have some fun!

No need for all this
The jacket, the boots, the hat
Sunshine makes it good.

Slip sliding away
Not down a powdery hill
But through a stop sign

Sunshine in Castile,
Searching for a bit of shade,
Cold beer on mesa.

Asphalt smells. Din from
jackhammers assault the ears.
Summer: Construction.

Lazy afternoon
A warm breeze kisses my face
Long Island Iced Tea
