THE DRAGON
I saw him sneaking through the house, He was twenty-two and quiet as a mouse. "Where's my dad?" in a whisper he said. "I've got to get passed him, or I'll be dead!"

The Dinner Fight
Humming in the kitchen, makin' something nice. A little voice calls out no sugar, all spice: "MOOOOOM! Sissy said she isn't going to eat her veggies!"

Hugs and Kisses
This invention is new. Its only been out for a while, and amazing only for a while. For a while, made to help with migraines. Then and now for a while. Made of what looks to be a mixture of a fabric material now. I have no cotton pickin' idea... But I do use it. Not for my cranium, but for the glass cover that protects the brain, the past. This too revealing. So, now this new invention adds an extra layer of hugs and kisses. Past visits... I-O-Us! Thank you for reading! Which part of the poem resonates with you? Share your thoughts!

Tax Return Haiku
Note: I was avoiding looking at any of my tax papers. I often owe more than I think I could make, and this year, I felt, there would be a continuation of the usual gouging. Well, I just found out my accountant was a genius with my bills and expenses and I am actually getting something back. I just checked the portal my long-time accountant uses online to see what magic he practiced this year.
