These haiku poems by Jennifer capture the essence of summertime, from the enchanting glow of lightning bugs to the tranquil moments of lazy days.
The reflection of Lightning bugs shining in your eyes Makes my heart grow wings *** Lightning crashes In the distance while I am Safely counting seconds *** The clocks have stopped Time lazes in a hammock It is summertime *** In the summer, Time floats Diaphanously *** Counting cricket chirps To figure out the temperature Teacher’s child’s summer *** Summertime Bike rides to the library Heavy-laden home
