mid-summer
a cloud passes a yacht
with hardly a wave

What a great play on the word "wave" ... several mental images popped up at once ... and then the right one just settled in. Such a rush!
O to be on a sailboat, sailing though a lovely summer's day.
beautiful
Great; love the double meaning.
The photographic and word images are so sunny and warm-- makes me long for summer and the occasional passing of a cloud.
Sweet and serene, made me smile!
so few words, so many many images. Succinct and powerful.
spectacular...in every way~~!
beautiful imagery and words.
i love the cloud waving--
great poem--really did make me feel summer!
Oh, summer! Thank you for evoking it so vividly - I am longing for the sun, and long, hot still days.
what a gorgeous blue
This is summer where I live! Have to say I am slow, though, didn't get the "wave" the first time I read it.
This flat sea cradles gently the boat, while the lonely cloud passes by waving farewell to those relaxed sailors!
Ah, the lovely scene of summer! Gorgeous!
Lovely scene and word play.
This is a very calm summer day scene...I could easly take a nap on the boat...you said it well.
perfectly lovely.. i can smell the salty air...
what a thought! it's so subtle and yet provoking
serene wordplay
