Your tender haiku brings back wonderful memories, Tim. Lately, I’ve been wishing that I could turn back time and have my (now adult) children become babies again and have them all snuggled with me under the same roof once more. Fortunately for me, all my kids still live very close to me. Congratulations on your wonderful win. Warmest wishes always.. ~Susan

I'm right there with you. We raised seven. Those were the best times. Mine are close too. Thank you Susan

Now was it mom or baby turning bright red with anger? If he is a colicky baby it was probably mom. Either way this poem works well. Good luck in the contest. ;0)

Great question Richard! Works both ways. If mother is angry it changes the poem from love to hate. Technically on a haiku the first line is what the poem speaks of. You question really ooend my mind.
