Poor Pooker

A feverish, little cheek, On a pink and suffering face. A worried eye is searching, For a soft, familiar grace. Two timid hands ~Out reaching. Two pouting lips ~Beseeching. "Mummy?" Please wipe away my fear, Without a trace. Continue reading

High Tea Drifter
Image
I'll wear the hat, And you take the spoon, To play upon your knee. We'll enjoy a nice chat -Not a dual at High Noon! (Such a strain when taking tea!) We've only one cup between us. But it's easy to please us. The tasting's in the pouring. Sport your... Continue reading

Total TMI

Toilet training is laborious! We strive and try for glorious, Progress. You think they're catching on SO quickly! Then they eject something sickly! *ugh!* Bum-mess! It's up their back; It's through the floor! You wonder how, You could adore, Such a grotesque, "Mini-taur"! Chalk up another memory to repress! Then... Continue reading

Bi-Stroller
Image
My daughter is quite curious. She has a temperament, That is nigh on impossible, To correctly circumvent! It's not separation. It is not frustration. Expressing herself's NOT a problem! We've tried to deflect -Tried to gently correct... But the bloom has left the blossom! You will not see it coming.... Continue reading

Snow Day Eve
Image
I'm poised to sprint back home, While I sit behind my desk. The weather calls for snow. So where is my house arrest? It's hard to watch without a window. So I've just had to make do. I've got the notifications set. And my lookouts, I've got two! I'm waiting... Continue reading

Dathering

Come. Let us sit, And play pretend. Our eyes will perk, As our minds wend, Over each rainbow, Around each bend. Each firefly, or new found friend, Will find a magic to attend, That culminates the perfect blend, Of soulful spark and happy end. Continue reading

The Tits
Image
I have a little girl, Who has a little curl, Perched ever so slightly on her lips! And when she is good, She behaves just like she should! But she'd rather be bad, 'Cause she's the tits! Continue reading

Hindsight

They'll sleep well together. They used to share a room. They'll sleep well together. It will be their kiddie cata-"coomb". They will not fight, Or stay up late. You'll see I'm right; They're quite first-rate! You'll never hear them -Just you wait! They'll sleep well together. *the next morning* They'll... Continue reading

Super!
Image
Those ultra-sonic squeaks and squeals, That are burning rubber off your heels, Do not come from bats or seals -It's my children! If your head is neigh imploding, From your circuits overloading, And your tooth enamel is eroding -It's my children! So please, I must apologize, If you ever DO... Continue reading

Cheeky Monkey

That wiggle-waggle tongue of hers -It always has an answer! The moon has set; it's not "asleep"! The clouds give rain; they do not "weep"! Such a born logic-romancer. Her mind is sharp as tacks -She never has to take a breath! "But how do you lose a dinosaur?" She'll... Continue reading

Seasonal Stress (to the tune of "My Favorite Things")
Image
The lights are not working and the ornaments shattered! Your "smart" Christmas cookies look horribly splattered! Counterfeit charities posing as devout! This is why Christmas time stresses me out! Holiday movies that went straight to rented. All of your packages got lost, or worse, dented! Half-cocked consumers lolly-gagging about! This... Continue reading

Suck It Up, Dad! Love James x
Image
He battles flu upon the sofa -Wrapped up in a man-burrito. His back it pangs, His head it wangs, His joints crunch like old Doritos. Then sweet and caring -Thoughtful! Like a steadfast constable, (enter the child) "Are you feeling poorly? "Why not lie there surely? "You'd definitely be more... Continue reading

Sitter Site Suckage

There was the one, Who thought my daughter, Could swallow and change a dime. "But I saw her put it in. "I know first aid! "I insist! She would be fine!" Then we got, Upgraded to the one, Who left dirty diapers on the floor. Who wants to leave, And... Continue reading

Ready Salted

I'm know I'm being silly -Putting things in a bad light. I toss and turn and huff and heave -I never sleep at night. I worry till I my nails are gone. I worry my hair to tufts. I dwell on things I cannot fix. I'm just assorted nuts! Continue reading

Just Deal!

If you're traveling abroad, And it's the first time you've trod, Overseas or even afield... I must warn you right now, You'll offend them somehow, Unless you're hiding inside a force field. Whether it's your manner or attire, That will cease to inspire, They'll know you're foreign right off the... Continue reading

Candy Code

I don't care how old. I don't care how young, If you wear a costume -I'll sugar your tongue! I don't care if you're skanked out -If you're bloody and gory. You can bring emotional baggage, For a ripping back story! You want candy? It's handy To put in some... Continue reading

Predictably Contrary
Image
The sky is orange. The grass is red. The Autumn leaves are blue! Dare to ask: "What color?" You'll get a glare, Coupled with the opposing hue. Hot is cold. Meek is bold. And tickles really hurt! Bricks are soft, As they float aloft! And the vacuum, you'll find, squirts!... Continue reading

Hoping for the Best

My son, he goes to school, And he has a little friend. And they play their little games, And laugh from the start until the end. He loves his little friend, But I have yet to see them mingle. I have my doubts as to his whereabouts, 'Cause he claims... Continue reading

We are teething. The bed's a scratching post. We are teething. Our bread is buttered till it's toast! Irritable just ain't the word! She's gone more cuckoo than a bird! The more blood she drew? The more she purred! We are teething! We are teething. What an odd thing to... Continue reading

I really love my Godson. He's sweet! Sassy! Unique! We got a card to say, "Well done! You're now 18! Ain't that a lovely streak?" I wrote all kinds of sweet, nice things -The things you're supposed to write. So what if it was dim, And I was beat -'Cause... Continue reading

Exception to The Rule

So you don't have to pay your bills, But I do. I do! And you don't have to give up frills, But I do, Oh I do! And you don't have to make ends meet, To set the standard -Because you can cheat! I think your time is quite complete!... Continue reading
