(Too late to edit, but 1st line has 1 syllable too many.
Change to "Soak up the sun, babe".

Lights out everyone.
From your cool summertime beds,
Spy the fireflies’ dance
@Lash,
Spy the fireflies’ dance
my cat leaps and twists to catch
the cool yellow sparks
The cool yellow sparks
against the July night sky
make our children laugh
@Lash,
make our children laugh
nitrous oxide for breakfast
weird immoral prank
@tsarstepan,
weird immoral prank
They took my red suspenders
And my pants fell down.
@coluber2001,
And my pants fell down
Liquid denim skims my thighs.
Eat your birthday cake
@Lash,
Eat your birthday cake
age isn't counted in years
it's counted in cakes
It's counted in cakes
Days are counted in cookies
Sometimes we get crumbs
@Seizan,
Sometimes we get crumbs
Too reckless and implusive
Cast fate to the wind
Cast fate to the wind
What dreams may come when we lose
Our appointed path
@Lash,
Our appointed path
meets and merges with others.
Whose path is it now?
@tsarstepan,
Leads to hugging trees,
My puny limbs beneath theirs,
In a true embrace
In a true embrace
Of comedic opinion,
They riff on *Don Knotts
*at this point, the writer emphasizes this haiku is based on an overheard lunch conversation by ill-fated blind daters and on NOT her idea of comedy, while his take on Barney Fife was, indeed, a tour de force.
@Lash,
Vying for improv
two slots left on the marquee
They hone one-liners
@Lash,
They hone one-liners
Twisting words like clay upon
The wheel of belief
@laughoutlood,
The wheel of belief
bumped into the sleepless night
rolling and trolling..
