April is National Poetry month. Inspired by the amazing Jason Reynolds I am writing a poem a day, though mostly haikus.
These are the poems from April 1st-8th
(1)
April is for poems
but I am not a poet
This will surely suck
(2)
Haikus are just texts
sent before there were cell phones
poet to poet
(3)
Early bird wakes me up
Drinking coffee under the trees
Dad is still asleep
(4)
Wherever we go
it always rains on our trips
Metaphor for life?
(5)
The tide is too high
for dogs to chase seagulls
Goodbye, Oregon
(6)
My kid hogs my bed
steals covers and my pillow
Wish I fit in cribs
(7)
Summer has snuck in
much like a teenager who
has broken curfew
(8)
I used to dream of
going on wild adventures
Now I dream of naps
