Haiku Mama

I can't quite remember who gave me this little book, but I just rediscovered it and found some of my favorites. From Haiku Mama by Kari Anne Roy:



Sniffing newborn's head,
a primal urge takes over -
try not to eat him.

Stabby curtain rod
poorly hidden in closet
is toddler's new toy.

Awake so early,
small boy rises with the sun.
Can't snooze a baby.

Tennis ball in sock:
sad yet apt description of
post-nursing boobies.

Making a playdate:
Why does it feel like high school?
Fear of rejection.

Red leaves on trees,
glitter poop in the diaper -
it's the holidays!
