Toilet training

her wry face blooms red
lo! roots! Dark and thick--
the corner; forbidden soil.

Well, how about this one, instead:

little freckles float
upon a smooth white cheek--
Oreos and milk.

Dawn said...

Lisa: :D That and they don't leave freckles in the milk or on the babies. Very clean, Chips Ahoy.
