Mid-August #haiku

This time of year there’s really only two things for eating:

Sweet corn hot, buttered,
peppered, dividing the plate:
the crown of summer.

Tomatoes, deep red,
thick-sliced with serrated knife:
mayo, salt, pepper.

Sweet corn’s hot kernels;
butter lingering on chin:
The summer dinner.
