A Few Haiku for You

Born wrinkly and wet
Daddy gave me my first bath
He can’t stop smiling

Asleep all the time
Can’t control my tiny limbs
Mom and Dad love me

Beginning to smile
Folks keep trying to make me
Laugh for them. Dance clown!!

Mom loves me so much
It hurts her heart to leave me
I won’t remember

I flirt with mirrors
I flirt with shiny objects
It cracks people up

Loud sounds startle me
My quivering bottom lip
Says I’m going to cry

I’ve started crawling
I’ll be mobile any day
Ooh, what’s over there?

G-T-U-G-A
Can’t believe the mutts beat us
Twenty-Four - Thirty

Caring for us all
It’s tough being a wife and mom
We love her for it
