Little Rabit -- Poem for Friday Writings

(Originally posted Tuesday, April 23, 2019,

for NaPoWriMo, Day 23 find it here) 

Cousin to the Easter Bunny?

.

I'm a little Sock Toy Rabbit

No dark rabbit hole for my home

Sleep in a large green padded box

Share it with a whole bunch of toys

Infused with kindness, smile ingrained

From a grey sock, red and white toed

Kind little lady imparted

love portion with each needled stitch 

Not seeking greatness or riches

Hanging out with my toddler friend

I love him he drags me around

By my ear, arm, or leg he pulls

Some day I'll be outgrown, cast off

Choose me next and you I will love

The Cake ~~ NaPoWriMo 2022, Day One

A Cake Lover Tells 

My favorite 

A cake with candles 

Candles burning brightly  

Quickly blow them out 

Ones for me to blow

But first I make a wish 

A wish I'll want to come true 

Birthday spent with you 

Will happen I know 

'Cause you always do 

You'll find I'm running away

So then you run with me 

And bring my cake along

Day 16 ~~ NaPoWriMo

The Kleptomanic;

story,  fact or fiction?

I have a problem, two problems

I am a Kleptomanic

I've been that way since I was born

Snatched cigarettes before I crawled

Not the worst, I've lost my status

When's the last time you heard that word,

Kleptomanic no one knows

Out of their vocabulary

It's still in the dictionary

Anymore it just isn't used

Kleptomaniacy's no excuse

Had I been Hypochondriac

The moral here is that no one,

really, no one cares for my plight

 - I'm hoping this post won't offend or be considered in bad taste. I woke up for some reason having Kleptomania on my mind.  Felt that I hadn't heard that word since I can't remember when.  Google says not many are afflicted by it.
