writers workshop - a poem of a lassie

This week's assignment at Mama's Losin' It, if you should choose to accept, is to write a poem describing who you are and/or who you are not. Sounds easy enough right? A poem... hmmm. I am the queen of Haikus and poetry of such. Let's see what I can whip up shall we?

Most friends call me Kat

The others call me Momma

Some don't even call.

Wife, mother, sister

Maid, writer, confidant, friend

Short order cook too.

I'm the only girl

In a house loaded with boys

I am out numbered.

I like many things

Soccer, wine and chocolate

Don't forget coffee!!

Sand between my toes

The colors of a sunrise

Smelling burning leaves

Holding Hubby's hand

A piece of cheesy pizza

Spring rain, a clean house.

I don't like spiders

Ironing, clowns and onions

Heights and loud talkers.

Doing dishes - yuck!

Conform to society?

Not this sweet Lassie!

I can't touch my toes

Can touch my nose with my tongue

Can't sing worth a darn.

So now you can say

This Momma Lassie you know

For better or worse.

There you have it - one Lassie somewhat summed up in a Haiku. Wonder what everyone else wrote about? Then head over to Mama's Losin' It and find out! Go on... GO!!
