Miss Dot
had lots
of polka dots;
she wore them every day.
Miss Dot
would not
dare to be caught
without her dot display.
Yes, Dot
Loved spots
Just lots and lots
At work, at rest and play!
This Dot
made plots
to wear her dots
No stripes got in the way.

Once Dot
who thought
her dots she'd brought
forgot them, sad to say.
forgot them, sad to say.
No, Dot
had not
brought polka dots,
much to dear Dot's dismay.
much to dear Dot's dismay.
Poor Dot,
no spots,
was so distraught;
a dotted disarray!
Then Dot
rethought -
tattoos she sought,
applying spots to stay.
Now Dot
cannot
forget her spots;
her dots will never stray.
a dotted disarray!
Then Dot
rethought -
tattoos she sought,
applying spots to stay.
Now Dot
cannot
forget her spots;
her dots will never stray.

ReplyDeleteI love your charming Dot and her indelible spots. :-) Here's mine for today:
ReplyDeleteI educate my mind
focus, remember happiness
let sadness go
For once, I couldn't figure out a couple. What was ISE? Ice? International Selective Egg? and IMALADNE? I'm a lad of New England? I'm a lad knee? I had to stare at IEDUC8 for a long time to realize what that one said, too. I was relieved to figure one out and have it not be challenging my religion, that I felt like celebrating! With a haiku! Yay!
IMALDNE = I'm all done!
DeleteDon't know ISE.
IMMIMMI: thought might be a kid's way of saying Grammie?
