Remember
When we
Acted out storybooks
I
Was Gerald
You were Piggie
Snuggled
Most mornings
On the couch
Walked
The path
By the river
Sang
Happy Birthday
On a screen
Put
Training wheels
On your bike
Planted
Seeds for
An unknown future
Tied
Knots as
The world unraveled
Day Ten of Na/GloPoWriMo challenges us to write a hay(na)ku. “A hay(na)ku consists of a three-line stanza, where the first line has one word, the second line has two words, and the third line has three words.” I’ve strung together memories that I want to save from this time spent together-apart.

What a wonderful title. And now I’m unraveling my own…(K)
Thank you. My older sons have turned my daughter into a “gamer” during social distancing. She is enthralled with a game called “Unravel” in which your character is a string figure who unravels to navigate his way through the world. When I told her I was writing a poem about things we’ve been doing together that I want to remember, she implored me to include that game in my poem.
thats a great backstory
Lovely sentiment, well executed. I’ve reread multiple times.
