One Single Impression: Murmur

The Children Murmur

The children are murmuring
it is the first day of school
the new teacher is real mean
we've heard she spanks with a rule

The children are murmuring
the school lunches are not good
our parents don't seem to care
if they ate them then they would

The children are murmuring
our P.E. coach makes us run
and recesses are too short
how can we have any fun

The children are murmuring
the teacher had brought a sack
she's opening it now--you think
every day might bring a snack

The children are murmuring
the bell is so very loud
we'll see how tomorrow goes
no words for our parents now

Pregnant ~ Haiku Bones

Pregnant

in expecting way
making babies takes nine months
all except the first
heard that saying from an aunt
the kids in school say it too
