I've been involved with the Poster Project since 2004. Back then one could submit up to five haiku, so I decided to do one per season. The summer haiku was about music and the wonderful summer concert series that Syracuse puts on. Although I was thinking about music in general, the Blues is one of my favorite genres and the Jazz Fest is one of the biggest concerts in the summertime.
I couldn't have written a poem about the music scene here in Syracuse and not mentioned jazz or blues.
Sensuous summers
Jazz—Blues, waft by eager ears
Sway Syracuse, sway
