Cesca's tour

Cesca, in awe, saw all
AC taping, lights galore
Whoops! Locked in a set!

On the occasion of Cesca arriving to pick up my house keys

Cesca's coming here
Got permission to give tour
Will hit overload.

On this particular jaunt to New York

Replying from bus
Nothing fun, odd to report
Will be there by three

Em I do promise
No parties or mess I'll make
Keys are safe with me

One more for the road
Three haikus to match dear Em
But not about much

It's raining, pouring
The old man is snoring. I

On being a lazyass

I am so thirsty
But too lazy to refill
my nalgene. Porkchop.

Tasty yogurt treat

sheep's milk yogurt, yum!
bounty of ginger goodness
creamy with spice crunch

On 9am denist appointment

it's almost lunch time,
but cheek is numb and tingly
one cavity filled

Woo! Now I won't freeze!

I got a new coat
No more colds for me. Pretty:
red with white flowers

I thought I was getting ahead of the game

"Age reverse" lotion
Put it on, and so it was
got acne again

We've been poets for years, really.

We now take a break from our regularly scheduled haiku for some historic poetry of a different form:

Cesca's 5th Grade limerick -

There once was a lady in blue
who could not bow tie her own shoe
she tied such a knot
the medics were brought
and now she's a big ball of blue.

She promises that there are accompanying illustrations, and perhaps one day we'll be lucky enough to see them!

Emily's 6th Grade Limerick -

There once was a lady from France
Who had some very fine pants
They came up to her knees
And let in the breeze,
Oh my how the young men did glance!

There were no illustrations accompanying mine, but the looks on the faces of my classmates was priceless, as I recall.

On snack time

Black and white cookie
Nectar of the gods? Hell yes.
Eat the middle last.

On the occasion of a good ankle prognosis

Woo! Ankle doc says:
You're getting better quickly
Buy more orthotics.

I'll clean them as soon as I stop feeling like there's someone sitting on me, bitch

Went to the doctor
Lungs okay, ears so clogged
Told me to clean them

On Emily's abundance of snot

distance between us
from sneezing, mucus and phlegm
get better soon em

On the lack of posts..... (Boston edition)

grant due tomorrow
work requests eating my time
be back on Wednesday

On the lack of posts...

My stuffy nose runs
It's so hard to concentrate
On writing haiku

On the occasion of a psycho death cold

Chicken soup is best
A nice healthy dose of schmaltz
for fighting a cold
