Swans, what do they wear? Silky dresses, that is what:
hand sewn, feathery, almost invisible,
see through stitches
holding raindrop sequin samples, embroideries,
veil ensembles and antique lace.

School Night Itβs late And Iβm supposed to be sleeping But instead, Iβm wide awake and hiding Beneath my blue Spider-Man blanket Holding a plastic flashlight in one hand And a brand-new comic book in the other Eagerly devouring the thrilling adventures Of that wonderful web-slinging wall-crawler While the neighborβs pint-sized pug Yaps on and on in the apartment next door Just like it does every night Β© Shaun Jex

Nan's wheels on her red frame rolled along with us, squealing, all a hearβme whistle,
piercingly high with its talk to the flowers and the earth in a loud yap.
On a play date with my bestie
I love to have a yap
with a large vanilla milkshake
and a soft Nutella bap.
