I’ll see what I can do with this one. In the meantime, here’s a POEM about a crazy aunt. I put these lines together in response to a few other prompts, as you can tell from the note at the top of the post:

CAUGHT TO THE QUICK, at Nickers and Ink

Blessings all,
Linda

PS: I will circle back, if I can come up with a LIMERICK and/or HAIKU.

she scoff at conventions with glee?
Fail to act quite her age?
Give advice strangely sage?

These are great descriptions of the aunt I visited a couple days ago! This made me smile!

I love it!
“In my fam’ly, the crazy aunt’s me.”

In my family the crazy mother-grandma-sister-(and yes)-aunt would be me.

I really like the limerick! Don’t get me wrong, the haiku is great, too! But the limerick…very funny!

those are both great! the first makes me giggle a lot - I am sure I’ll have time for this (since I too will be wrangling tax returns that I’ve yet to start!) so I’ll be back with poems later.
