My other two: boys.
S1 could wear his dad's tux -
if he were shorter.

Best to reserve one
Before the stock is down to
nightmares of our youth.
I don't think S1
fancies himself Travolta,
or wants blue ruffles!

Nice thought, gadad,
but in this economy...
I want royalties!

Oh, good idea --
another thing on the list
to do this weekend!
I can't imagine
geek_son in a tuxedo,
but he's got the date.
Nice figure he'll cut,
since this term the coach offered
a weight-lifting class. |

feelings of self-worth!

Ditto coolweather's
words about sonnet; I like
this short, easy fun.
But please, musica,
post some rules for all of us
to think about it. |

My verse is a wreck
back to the octomom thread
End of day malais
My sonnet's a ruse
My talent's not up to snuff
forget about it

moms fret not at their haiku's narrow bonds
. . .
um . . . looks like twelve more lines like this to go!
And then that summarizing couplet turning back
Oh heck I've seriously lost the knack.

Kid thinks that's funny.
English major parents, ha!
Haiku, I can do.

Harriet, no thanks!
Too long and complex for me,
Rhythmic lines and rhyme.
Maybe this weekend --
if the kitchen's finally clean -- then I'll try sonnet.
But tell your kiddo
that laughing at his elders
is not too polite. |
