Got Those Summer Camp Blues

He complained today,
"Camp is killing my summer,"
he'd rather be home.

His cough has faded
during the daytime at least ...
Back to camp he goes!

Just one more week there
One full week of just half days
Does it help or hurt?

When I read too much
I wonder if it hurts him,
Pressure to conform.

Yet I survived it;
Part of life is adapting
where you don't fit in,

Until you can find
the people and places that
accept who you are.

Happy Haiku Friday!

If you need a pick-me-up, I recommend "Mamma Mia." Pierce Brosnan can't sing, but he gets points for trying.
