Mother's Day Haikus.

I hosted a baby shower last weekend and I don't do games so we asked everyone to write at least one Haiku for the mother to be with a theme of motherhood, parenthood or womanhood.  It was alot of fun.  I am no creative writer but once you get going with the Haiku it's hard to stop.  Here are mine:

Time for a diaper change

Oh no! Fountain in his face!

Better his than mine!

 

 

Need to do laundry

“Mom, will you please play with me?

The laundry can wait

 

 

Love dirty boy smell.

Sweaty, dirt rubbed in face, hands

Clean boy is good tooJ

 

Playing with daddy

Tricksters, rowdy, rolling fun

Belly laughs, testosterone


By the way I was inspired by the last issue of "Brain Child" a mother's magazine/journal where they posted Haikus that readers had written.  

Now if you are reading this a I challenge you to Haiku!

That's it!
