Haikus Inspired By Sue

   Posted by: Allan    in Verse -- Love

Logging people on,
handing out headphones to kids,
hanging out with Sue

A magic school bus,
an outdated Encarta,
Barney is Evil

Can I have more time?
Excuse me, miss, I can’t hear.
My thing is broken.

You don’t have no books
on Ancient Egypt, he asked.
I would have said “Yes”

The science projects,
the California Missions,
What is the state bird?

Restraint and patience –
admirable virtues from
someone with good aim

If indeed ’tis true
that children are our future,
when’s Armageddon?

Hey! Pass me the glue –
sticks and paper come alive
as if by magic

Being Grandma Sue,
she held Pierre in her arms
dressed like a pirate

Enjoy retirement
This place will not be the same.
Thanks for everything
