Post Halloween

POST HALLOWEEN

I’m a talkin’ bout them trick-er-treeters last night!
Dang kids cum up on tha porch –
Cum by the bus-loads
Up on tha dang porch!
“Trick er treet!”
Them dang squealee little voices!
Don’t trust none on ‘em
While maw’s a passin’ out nuts ‘n apples ‘n candee ‘n
                                                                                   stuff
I’m ridin’ shotgun    a sittin’ on tha porch swing
I’m talkin’ bout a genyouwine 12 gage babee!
Oh it’s not a couple extree candees i’m wurreed bout
It’s them dang Jones twins
Honriest kids ever
An ya caint tell ‘em with the masks ‘n all
Weel    tha brats knowed some better ‘n ta come
                                 beggin’ on our porch last night
but this mawrnin whin I waked up    look out tha winder
At first I thunk it snowed durin’ tha night
Nope!
Twas a charmin sight
Bout fifty rolls

daver, you got my haiku meaning exactly. I wanted to give the title to it Winter's Christmas Tree, but Deb does not allow haiku to have titles. So thanks for realizing what I was doing with it! Luv, Andrea
