Lumpy oatmeal makes me crazy!

If I had a stick
to carry
I wouldn’t walk softly.

...

Baby birds nest;
their mother fusses and flits
when I appear.

...

Did we say to heck
with spell check?
It just takes a sec.

It would break my heart
if you forgot
to share yourself with me.

Hugging you...

Whether it fits the guidelines or not, I certainly appreciate the way your mind works!

Love the second one, Alison

Last line of the first one has a syllable too many.

You're doing good, though

I tried to say "wouldn't" really fast as if it had one syllable.  It was the five shot latte coursing through my veins. I was speeding.  Thank you for deciding to hang out with those of us who are participating.  I appreciate you, Mr. Balladeer.

Sunshine, darling - hugs and kisses flying your way.

Those lattes are also responsible for the word "squeet", instead of let's go eat. Just say NO to Starbucks while writing poetry
