Comment from Sandra du Plessis
A very well-written haiku. After a long day at school where the children have to behave, be quiet and work hard, they let themselves loose after school and have some fun at the lake.

A refreshing, nostalgic look at the younger years. I really enjoyed your Haiku. You write them so well and having no art work in this piece of writing was perfect. It stood alone. Susan

Comment from PoemsOfDD
IndianaIrish, you are right not to attach a photo to this haiku. The light blue background and the words are enough to allow the reader to have a good visual. I can actually hear the kids screaming in fun and splashing in the water. A very pleasant read with a high spirited tone. ~DD

Comment from bertranclan
Excellent haiku which paints a vivid picture of what I think we all have done at some point in our young lives. I can see it so clearly. A very pleasant poem.

Comment from jmdg1954
Being a semi-city boy, I never had the opportunity to do that jump. Always wanted to. I guess I'm not to old to try it. Maybe a bucket list item?
I always enjoy your haiku's.
Nice to dream. John

Thank you, John, for your great review and comments for my summer haiku. I'm delighted you enjoyed the poem, and I appreciate your kind response. You're not anywhere close to being too old to do a giant cannonball into the water! Yeah, a bucket list item for sure!

Yup, I remember doing this into a pool when I was a kid and a lot of other dumb things I won't share, lol.
This is a fun summer haiku, I like it.

Comment from Celtic Angel
Such a great haiku! I love the idea of the children celebrating the end of the school year with a splash, swinging into summer and jumping into the lake with whole-hearted youthful pleasure. Great imagery. It captures the children's mood in the moment and season so well. Nice work!

Comment from Jesse James Doty
I love the imagery. This is a straight forward Haiku, which brings back memories for most of us growing up. The last line says it all, "school's out." Splashing, and swimming, and diving, and doing cannonballs, all were so much fun. I did not live near a lake, but a swimming pool was always good fun. It was nice to know someone who had a swimming pool that you could use. Summers were great and a break from school. Thanks for bringing back fond memories for me.
Take care, Jesse
