So we remember
all the elusive "Mondays"
and we savor them.

D has a pattern:
Most recent school we toured
Is current fav'rite.

Each school is better
Than the ones we saw before
New fave ev'ry time.

"Mom I love this one!
Great dorms, weather, fountains!
It's calling to me!"

Too depressed to write Haiku:
Bathing suit shopping.

Please don't glue August;
Then TOS's birthday won't come
Nor those of her kids.

For you, TOS,
twenty-three days are unglued.
After that, no dice.

Thank you, Harriet.
You can glue all but the first,
second, and eighteenth.

Oh and the new one,
the thirty-first, for the soon
to be son-in-law.

D(elivery) Day

The "Snow" family.

Last night in class I
Felt dejected, Im too old!
These painters are young.

The teacher told me
"In music genius appears
in the young artist

In painting genius
just truly makes itself known
when one is older

Now is your time, NOW.
Work harder, live harder and
most of all enjoy"

Too many Leos
Roaring, and one lone Taurus
make for much drama.

But we have great hair.
Truly we have manes to go
with our outsized pride.
