poem du jour

Friday's:

Apple- banana-
Strawberry juice makes sticky
Mess on kitchen floor


Saturday's

Little boy climbs mound
Of Daddy-filled blankets and
Squeals out his delight

poem du jour

It's amazing how much the landscape of your house can change when there is a little one crawling around.

Purple elephant
In living room -- Either I
Drink or I'm a mom

poem du jour

Two poems today. One for yesterday:

Daddy called the house
The baby glares at the phone
Hits it, wails -- Long night!

And one for today:

Nothing makes me laugh
Faster than a baby's laugh --
A shiver of stars.

poem du jour

Today's short poem:

Helpful me: irons
Ungraceful me: burns my thumb --
Won't do that again!

poem du jour

Saturday's:

In air seven hours;
California, seven days.
Hope they pass quickly

Sunday's:

Chloe the cat sits
Centered on the bathroom floor
And howls like the wind

Shorter poetry this week

Here are the poems for Thursday:

Sophie's doctor said
Yesterday -- Her knee's better --
Don't hurt it again!


And for Friday:

Thursday's nixed landing
Makes weekend plans uncertain --
Unstable weather!

poem du jour

Our computer is sick, so I probably won't be posting until it's mended.

Yesterday's poem:

California fires
Menace the state, but, so far,
Relatives are safe


Today's:

Computer is down --
Jeff called his brother to try
To cheer it up soon
