For DVerse’s Haibun Monday today, we are considering summer. I have been thinking lately that the summer season really should start before the summer solstice, maybe on June 1st. 🙂
I remember the excitement of mid-June: class parties, signing yearbooks, summer break coming soon. Family vacations we used to take, big birthday parties with cake and other celebrations, Fourth-of-July fireworks. Completely carefree days. And then, the dread of another August ending.
remember those days,
summertime the pinnacle
of kids' existence

Summertime is indeed the pinnacle. Now I get to enjoy the excitement all over again with my two children. Memorable haiku.

Summer time to school kids, be it primary, secondary, or high school, is like an entire lifetime — bigger than reality, more exciting than the heart could embrace! And August was a dirge.
