Friday Haiku - Reminiscence
February 21st, 2008 . by Joyce
Little people days
Thought those busy times would last.
Now, precious mem’ries
Imagination
Fresh air, play outside, all day
Better than many toys
Queen of all she sees
An imaginary realm
Do you see her throne?
Do you remember?
I let you choose what to wear.
Mis-matched clothes are fun.
Wondered “who” you’d be
Precious babe, I waited long
To see you, meet you
Mischievous sisters
Looking for fun from the start:
Best buds forever
For more Haiku, visit Jennifer over at Playgroups are No Place for Children and Christina at A Mommy Story.
Sniff, sniff… This was lovely. Thanks.

Sweet haikus! I’ll miss these days myself when they’re gone.
You warmed my heart and made my eyes spill over.
Thank you all SO MUCH for your sweet comments. I went ’round to read all your Haikus and left comments for you there.
Have a good day!
Now I must quickly get dressed for work and be off.
Aw, just adorable. Love the haikus and the pictures both!
What a beautiful family!
am I really seeing this right? SIXTEEN comments? It just gets better and better
How fun to see those old pictures again, amazing that they’re “old” it all feels like yesterday.
Love to see the progression, great pics and ‘ku!
Happy Friday!
Oh, that is so sweet to see them stay friends. I always wanted a sister.
these are sooooo sweet! i love it!
Hi, Laura,
I need to get busy scanning more of those fun old photos. I just need to be careful not to put too many of them up at once! They do bring back great memories!
Wow! 21 comments. Your blog sure is popular Mama!
I loved the poems and pictures.
Just think how fortunate (blessed) we were to have a big yard to play in, fresh air and all of that that’s so rare for children to have now.
Many children grow up living in the city, an apartment building surrounded by concrete and busy roads; perhaps a park nearby to visit but so little exposure to nature.
