From Half of You
Dad:
Knock Knock
Me:
Who's there?
Dad:
Hike
Me:
Hike who?
Dad:
Unsuspecting child
Dad waiting with bated breath
Sets the perfect trap
Me:
My dearest father,
Alas, your trap was not sprung
I saw it coming.
Dad:
My sweetest daughter,
I was just bragging on you,
And you turned on me.
Me:
You made this menace
They say you reap what you sow
-From your pride and joy
Dad:
Alas, you wound me,
I'm but partially at fault,
You are your mom's clone.
Me:
Mom does not haiku
This mischief is all from you
I got lots from you
Dad:
Only half from me,
Haiku from me is recent,
But it made you smile.
Me:
I value both halves
I am proud to be of you
I love you daddy
A playful haiku exchange between my dad and me, inspired by a classic dad joke gone poetic.
