Summer, warmth abound
In the North, starting in June
Often very hot
Sometimes undulates
Spring one day, Summer the next
Which season is it?
Increasingly, it
Feels like a roller coaster
About the weather
Where did the spring go?
And yet I write this in May
Best let the course run
Haiku strings can be
Rather difficult to do
But still possible
Enter stanza six
So far, used syllables are
A hundred and two
In a haiku there
Are seventeen syllables
No more, no fewer
But haiku garlands
Need at least two haiku groups
Else, just a haiku
Summer, what a time
To have fun in the sunshine
And water fun too
I end this haiku
Garland on the note to have
Fun in this summer.
