summer Haiku

I await autumn
as I sit among the green
and sweat drips from nose

I like the human element,

however it lacks a certain frisson.
How to give constructive feedback?
Fucked if I know.
Perhaps the feeling of the nosedrip, significator of work or inappropriate perspiration?

hi Jess

I had hoped the change from natural description to very human sweating might provide the contrast. Appreciate your dropping by.............stan

This one...

had me thinking of all the implications, for instance:
Awaiting with anticipation, or intrepidation of Autumn?
Sitting among the green; liking it or hating it?
Sweat dripping from nose; mowing the lawn?

Anyways, I liked all the implications. ~ Gee

Hi Gee

The good thing about extremely short forms is they leave more room for different interpretations so you can read what you want into this lol...............stan
