Days are growing short
Calendar flipped to August
12 days until school
Attempting to make
the most out of these fading,
drowsy summer days
Making impromptu
trips to the pool and playground
Catching summer flicks
Enjoying picnics
and all of the delicious
summer season treats
Begging to stay out
until the yard lights come on ~
signaling bedtime
Postponing bedtime
and sleeping in the next day
Spontaneous naps
Heading to the store
with school supply list in hand ~
hunting for bargains
Computer time has
been temporarily placed
on the backburner
Must. enjoy. these. last
lazy, hazy, crazy days
of summer, oooooh yeeeaaaah

on the first day of summer it seems never ending. and then suddenly it ends!!
Awesome haiku. Summer flies by, doesn’t it? I’m glad that you are taking the time to make the most of the last days. Wow, back to school on the 12th? That seems pretty early!

Have a wonderful time. I am so sad at how fast summer has slipped by. It’s crazy. I miss my kids and they’re not even gone yet!
I love this haiku Mandy! Well done. And agreed, internet time will be here for you in 12 days. Enjoy your time!
Nice haiku!
You’re going to have 500 e-mails in your box when you’re back.
I 100% understand. Enjoy the Indian Summer.
