Psst. I’m not really supposed to be here.
Actually I’m in South Florida on vacation (where the Swine Flu has arrived as well), but I had to say a little something to introduce today’s guest post. It is a piece from one of my favorite bloggers. He was one of the original visitors here on Momisodes, and quickly gained my respect as an amazing writer, artist, and friend. And he has kindly agreed to guest post here even though he had to compile his own post honoring his son’s 25th birthday today.
Please give a warm welcome to my friend Lou, and stop by his place to wish his 2nd son a Happy Birthday!
—————————————————————————————————————
Sandy’s gone. Vacay.
No one here but us chickens.
And a small Haiku.
Momisodes? Away.
Babisodes. Dadisodes, too.
Gone to Florida.
Land of Oranges,
And Wally. And Grandparents.
Long due honeymoon.
There will be fam’ly,
And, if they’re really lucky,
They will be alone.
They won’t be gone long,
but long enough to recharge,
the Love Battery.
Have lots of fun, guys.
Wash your hands, be careful.
Come home to us, safe.

*waving* hi, lou!!

Hi, Lou. Thanks for writing while Momisodes is away. Nice haiku! Hi Momisodes. The flu has arrived at one of our local high schools, so it looks like it might have arrived near you even if you stayed home. Hope you get lots of sun, sand and relaxation!
