Haiku Update...

My 8 yo daughter, K., contributed this haiku about worms--obviously not her favorite form of wildlife!

Worm, worm, I am one.
I do not have legs or wings.
I'm really ugly.

She's carrying on the proud family tradition :).



Be sure to read the comment section of the previous Haiku post to read some beautiful poetry from other readers!

I definitely don't like worms but I love the haiku. Good job K and all who have written one. Love, Mimi

Worms are gross and fat
can't stand to see them wiggle
I scream like a girl

Kelly said...

Love it, Von! Who knew my friends were so talented (and had such strong feelings about worms)?!?

Priceless, Tina! I knew you could do it :). I'm thinking GHBC needs to publish a book of poetry instead of recipes!

Laurie's haiku:

Jury duty, yes!
Could it get any better?
At least it's Friday!


I'm getting such a kick out of everyone's poems! We're all more creative than we thought :).

"UB", Sorry I stole your thunder by publishing Slime Mold before you could. I like the knock knock joke, though, Bro!

Amy, I can tell you speak from the heart about the diaper-thing :).

Keep 'em coming!
