Haiku Friday: Napping
One of the great pleasures of summer is the chance to take a nap in the sunshine-- by the pool, or the ocean, even on the couch in your own front room. Let's haiku about that this week! Here, I will go first:
Rarest luxury
An afternoon and sunshine
My breathing slows down.
Now it is your turn! Just use the 5/7/5 syllable pattern, and have some fun!

				I see my dog who
seeks the floor’s patch of sun for
a languid liedown.
I see my husband
whose years lead his head to nod
after our supper.
I see myself give
into droopy eyelids on
weekend days, post-lunch.
We three give into
our body clocks whose rhythms
insist: rest … rest … rest.

				Shh....He is asleep!
So peaceful. Well-deserved rest.
Blissful summer nap.
Uh oh! Wake up NOW!
To the boat! Rescue siblings!
Guess I'll take that nap!
