Infinite Monkeys. Infinite Typewriters.

More in Shan's Crap (Shannon McEwen)

The poetry of love

a re-write of Breastmilk and poetry

 

Finnegan poops in mustardy stanzas
         Always in messy threes
                    When I asked him about line breaks
                 He pooped upon my knees
 
Meghan burps her ABC’s
          And giggles when she’s done
                  Then she sings in syllables
            Thick with witty pun
 
Logan whines in rhythm
            As he walks in perfect time
                 Of every emotional melody
          And the odd poetic rhyme
 
Daddy laughs in silly sonnets
           And tells jokes in metered verse
                He often forgets to pick up the milk
        His leaky memory be his curse
 
Mama likes us all in line
            From the tallest to the small
                Silent, safe and all tucked in
         Is her most desired poetry of all
