When My Son Put My Heart In My Throat

Then Chucked My Throat Under A Bus

Never that inkling

To ponder my child’s thinking

Mom’s busy today

***

Son strapped in stroller

Slaps three butts like a roller

As ladies we pass

***

They all turn around

And stare at three-year-old found

Laugh so hard they cry

Thank you for taking a peek at my entry for the Vocal Snafu Senryu Challenge!

Yes, this really did happen to me while pushing my son in his stroller through a crowded popular London market, and there wasn't enough time to be embarrassed. So, for all those who think they may have seen and heard it all about parenthood, I guarantee you, children will unceremoniously blast your knowledge/experiences to smithereens.
