Haiku by Luke

Standard
The wind so cool here
Swaying loudly in the trees 
Keeping me cool
 
Fire is red hot flames
The smoke is big black and high
Raining down ash now
 
Trees growing so high 
They are luscious and green 
Leaves blowing off
 
Dogs are really awesome
They eat bones and lots of food
They bark a lot now
 
Lemons are sweet and sour
They are  really great eating 
I eat them by the hour
Carrots make you see
Especially in the dark 
They are orange
Pools hold some water
The chlorine hurts your eyes
it is quite hot now
Medals are so shiny
There are gold, silver and bronze medals
They’re in the Olympics
Wasps are pretty dangerous
They can bite you so much, it hurts
It is not GOOD

In a bed of brown.
