Fractured Haiku

Wee old Lady Who
Resides in a tennis shoe
Grandsons live there too

WHEWW!

This is a fractured haiku

OH, I love this. A bad smelling shoe house. AWesome. And I recall letting my dog Ollyver lick my plate. Then I just set it in the sink to soak before tossing it in the dishwasher! Luv, Andrea
