Erg! This is more difficult than I had originally thought. Oh, well. Better late than never!

52 Haiku!
Was I on drugs or something?
Nope. Just plain crazy.

This weekend was cooler than the previous weekend, but still hot here in Phoenix. This is where I drew my inspiration for today’s haiku:

April showers, not
here in Phoenix. It’s quite hot.
Miss California

Pumpkin on the porch
Welcomes autumn to my home
Soon the leaves will follow

This week’s haiku is inspired by the first experience with fireflies, back when I was living in Baltimore. I was enraptured by them and still feel the thrill when I think about them.

Lighting bugs outside
blink like Christmas tree lights while
they search for a mate

I had to avoid the computer last week due to a back spasm, so here is last week’s haiku almost a week late.

A fly jit jitters
Across our truck’s windshield.
Does it know I’m here?
