Immunity Haiku

I finish making dinner tonight and look over to see that A has helped himself to a snack as he waited. *Face palm*

Indiscriminate consumption of apples: what does this remind me of?

Adam and Eve? Snow White’s bait? The catalyst of the Trojan War??

No… These trouble-filled stories are too on the nose, even for A.

Let’s go with this:

A haiku inspired by our toddler who evidently maintains an impenetrable immune system:

an apple each day
keeps the doctor away, so
of course he tests neg.

“Big Play” Haiku

weekend with our niece:
except for the hair brush, she’s
just one of the bros.

Room Service Haiku

​when your homies can’t
spring you from the slammer, but
at least they bring snacks.

Bro-provided 6am breakfast: apples & Cheetos.

Monster Haiku

cheers to my son who
loves all things monsters but still
answers to “sweetie.”

Halloween Haiku

spent hours carving, but
according to our neighbor,
dave’s pumpkin’s* the best.

*see tiny face.

Birthday Haiku

“party in the rain”
(from the same kids who starred in
“pandemic school year”)
