chats & flits around her head
reading her haiku.

my naked wife sleeps
cat curled up comfortably
in her crotch...both purr

pond laughs with ripples
spreading across its old face
as frog disappears

Truck backs up - old pond
croaky exhaust mimics fart
frog glares in disgust

the street writes haiku
composed of shadows...moonlight
so my dream tells me

peering out of a too short skirt
the flimsiest excuse of a knickers

butterfly goes off into the sunset
baby falls asleep
Mum goes back to reading Auden
