:) I think it sprung here last week, only to stick it's head in the ground as freezing temperatures took over. I love snow; I love winter--but ready for new life to spring (that wasn't meant, lol)
Love the bird sound effects!

Comment from Maureen's Pen
Dear Dean - the music started automattically and I couldn't for the life of me get it to stop. It, for me, was distracting.
Loved your poem, it had that slow awakening of the senses I like.
Thanks for sharing.

Music? You hear music in this post, Maureen?
All I hear is birds.
Thanks for your review.

Oh, by the way...
I believe every computer comes with a volume control where you can mute your speakers.
Mine does.
You'll usually find it in the lower right-hand corner of the desk top tool bar.
Just for future reference...

to me birds sing, thus music...LOL

Yes, got it. But for those of us not on wifi, video eats up to much data.:)
Comment from BOO ghost
I think Freddie Kruger said them words, sweet dreams... did you use Windows paint on this? You just paste it, I suppose. Boy, that hammock ;looks like a good place to catch some z's in the bush. The birds are chirping... the bees are going bezerk. You use beautiful words. I could take a nap now. Nice one! BOO!

Yep, I used paint just for the special font, BOO.
I just typed the words in a font called Distant Stroke, on a white background them uploaded them to Photobucket as a picture. I used the HTML code they generate, copied it, and pasted it here.
After that, I added the animated gif of the hammock at the top.
I'm glad you liked this.
I really appreciate you taking the time to read it.

yep, well, I new that fanstory don't have cool fonts like that. Fanstory could add a few more fonts i think... yep, the font you picked looks great. yeah, think i could do it, may take a few tries to get the knack of it. I am lazy ghost. I promoted my haiku higher in case gypsy wants to peep, I pay a handsome sum for all of the long free verse. Added a couple more images too. Well, see you in Wonderland. BOO

See ya there, BOO...
Comment from Lu Saluna
I like this one, it is a very lovely human nature haiku.
It most definitely speaks of summer and "melts miles until I'm with you" is such a beautiful line. The satori speaks for itself. Well done.

I love the birds chirping and the hammock, ahhhh, I wish I was laying in it reading a book.

Comment from Aussie
Spring has sprung, the grass has ris, wonder where da flowers is?" Sweet subject for you who must be obeyed (in the hellish poems we read.) Still, I enjoyed the gentle sway of the hammock and the Haiku that painted a picture of tranquillity, waiting for the love of your life to come home. Dreaming away as hammock does sway. Well done Dean.

Beautiful set up for this very nice haiku waiting for others to show to join in the fun in the sun. It is such a beautiful day to be outside being kicked back and free to lie in the sun

Comment from Bill Schott
This haiku, Summertime Dreams, uses alliterative phrasing, along with a hint of 'sweet', 'melt'ing, and 'anticipation', to join the splendid production of sight and sound, and create that cool sensation of springtime. Nice.

Excellent Haiku. I love the gentle swaying hammock and the word anticipation is often the high point of any journey. I enjoyed this one very much.
