Half an hour to cook,
and five minutes to inhale.
Dinner is over.

Hooray, more haikus!
I can stall kitchen cleaning
a little longer.

To my son's first-choice college...
Harvey Mudd College,
I send you a brilliant gem.
Please, polish him well.

So many facets,
already he shines so bright.
But more waits in rough.

I know you'll agree,
once you've seen how he sparkles,
you're blessed to have him.

(I write this without
the merest hint of bias
or motherly pride. )

Oh... and you just might
want to add a little bit
to your food budget.

Nice one, lspf, but...
geek_son's home tonight.
The girl he might like to date
isn't allowed to.

Many Mudders say
Mudd's greatest attraction lies
one hundred feet south!

We will send wishes
for your Scripps-loving daughter
to be admitted.

geek_son's fate is sealed --
he's sent in his deposit
Early Decision.
