Hi Isabel, and Steve,

Thanks for starting up the summer haiku blog!

talk of tangerines-

Frank O'Hara leaves me

an eager note 

*tangerines is an early Summer kigo

Frank O'Hara's 'Poem' is about an invite

to see a friend in the summer, but by the time

he visits, it's both Autumn and his friend is dead.

My wish is that we "talk of tangerines" for some considerable time! ;-)

all my best,

Alan
