Haikus 4 U
"Why I Want to Go Home"
(A haiku translated from the original ramblings of a visiting grandmother)
The coffee-too strong
They feed me squash casserole
The tea is too weak.
No rug on the floor
The long-nosed dog comes for me
Only one towel rack
The lamps are dimmed much
My bed is too soft, too high
As is the sofa
I wander the halls
I ask my daughter where she
has put my bedroom
The TV remote is
baffling and strange to me
Secretive device
Inside is too cold
Outside, ninety-nine degrees
I want to go home
P S Guess I'm outta the will
