Oh to be cool
Hot days dream of icy lake
Skate into the spray

Today I'm linked with Kristjaan Panneman
at Carpe Diem Special #125, Sogi's first "this autumn sky"
Kristjaan wants us to write in the vein opened by Iio Sogi, a pre-Basho haiku poet. Here is a model for us, one of his works (I believe that his early copyright has expired by now).
ah, for coolness,
it rivals the water's depth -
this autumn sky

Me? I got cooled off
