Haiku – Mom – The True Rock Star
Robbed these two from myself. Not a lot of time to write something for mom this year, but I didn’t want to let the day go by without giving all moms a nod. I’m a stay at home dad and I see first hand how awesome moms are. They are true rock stars. Happy Mother’s Day to all moms out there.

Love, safety, comfort
In the caring arms of mom

How to describe a mom,
well,
it may be too hard to do,
without leaving out,
too many things,
that are true.
For a mom is a blessing,
a true gift from God,
her patience and virtue,
is something,
you could never prod?

Swing for the fences
He thought, as he stood at home
Crowd cheering loudly

Resting for a spell

Just past the stop sign
Down an unused dead-end street
Sat the house of screams

Pinwheels are spinning
Round and round and round they go
Sharp, bright colors blur
