63. This Is What Family Looks Like

Bags of groceries
Homework on the table
The smell of burnt noodles
Muddy shin guards
Littering the floor
Phone ringing
Laughter
Bickering
Legos built
Dog barking
We live in a house
of love

  6. It almost looks like a shape poem. I enjoyed the family imagery. But I agree with Barbara about the legos!

  7. The senses, the senses, I think you got them all. A house with a family attacks them all at once, so this captured that perfectly.
