Haikus Inspired By Sue
Posted by Allan in Verse -- Love on July 17, 2009 11:00 am
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an outdated Encarta,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
