Tanka This, That, Those and Them

cat, dog, food, humor, mom, pain, summer, I tripped over feet My shoe laces both came undone Slid in my 'spilled' milk Cut my finger on broke glass My blood now was mixed in milk! I sat on a chair It was much too low for me Table top held my chin Knees folded I knelt down below My neck got cramped looking up! Taking a 'soap' soak I washed my hair in 'suds' water Forgot to rinse 'wash' Let the bath drain of cold water Had to take a shower too! I bit my finger A huge delicious apple Choked on pieces bitten And swallowed a broken tooth It left an empty hole then! Pits are wicked on teeth Cherry pits the worse for wear Three cherries at once Eaten you choke on a pit If swallowed you then will die! Pepper makes a sneeze Then coughing up of chewed food Follows up the throat Adding 'more' to the food plate Appetite all lost! Close your eyes and wish Once upon a time like 'right' now My mom told me so Magic will make a wish come true Then I learnt she fibs white lies! Cats and dogs skip rope Jumping around up and down When the double-dutch stops Cat and dog hair flies about Then the fight is done double time! Touring on my bike I flipped ' head over heels' and rolled Down grassy culverts below Upon a stinking skunk hole Startling the homeowners there! Belly laugh causes much gas That builds wind into a toot Relieving more pain Reaching a higher stink bomb That calls more laughter! My peaches are very ripe I squeezed one to check them out Grab'n napkins and bowl When bitten into juices pour Sliding stickily down my chin! Corn on the cob needs Melted butter and wood toothpicks Small bits catch in teeth Cob takes two hands for chomping All the kernels in a row! Shaved cabbage ' coleslaw' Sliced hamburger buns with meat Chopped onions with sauces Causes gall bladder heartburn pain Trapped gasses giving 'piglet' shame!
