Missing image
Snug in his lawnchair
A sea of blue towels
Flutter on the line

    Nice Read!

    Picture perfect! I can see this clearly. Like the image of 'a sea of blue towels fluttering'! Good job!

    vivid

    enjoyed this vivid haiku with its enterprising use of images & poetic language - i like the fact that it reads like a peaceful scene but is given extra depth by your exzcellent choice of the adjective 'snug". good one....

    How magically delightful - - -conjured up summer images for me that I can't quite put my finger on, but made me feel snug as a bug in a rug. Nite!!!
