5 - 7 - 5
Haiku are a form of Japanese poetry that are written in three lines with a syllable count of five, seven, five. But don't let that stop you writing whatever you like. There are no fascists here and any contribution you wish to make is welcome. Here we seek the sublime, and if we can't have that, we'll just have a laugh. It's all good.
With the current picture as your inspiration, pile in to the comments and have a go. At the end of the week I pick five and put them on the front page.
As the Japanese say - Let's enjoyment haiku!

Waves in the ether
Communing with the Great Spirit
Reverence in the air

A meeting of minds
The talking stick now rested
Accord bestows resolve
Spruce boughs and green hops
A beer brewed by my father
Will warm me at home
der schutte
the air like crystal
such hard sparkling clarity...
then I let one rip

A worthy effort, the likes of which is normally reserved for reprobates like me but it is the Great Spirit you will have to answer to mate, I am nobody in this; te he.
Sorry FB. It's just that there's something about a green miasma that I find irresistible. If it's any consolation I did feel guilty.
a pungent green fume
one more hit of peyote
I am animal
Yeah I remember greens and blues on peyote. Mostly in the peripherals. I remember taking notes on it because I thought I was some kind of Casteneda at the time. That was of course after I threw up, while I was throwing up it was all swirly red and orange stuff.
as I cease to be
vast space travelled / not travelled
the sky comes to me
