exhausted from work

exhausted from work
I step inside the sunset
leave the day behind

above, an airplane

above, an airplane
and below, a firefly
equal points of light

childhood summer

As my kids head off to camp, I can't think of a better haiku than this one by my bro-in-law Ryan Devlin to capture childhood summer.

Red Kool-Aid mustache
Bare feet scratched strong on tree trunks
Three months of freedom
