Welcome to Four Lines! I have a goal I would like to write at least four lines of poetry or a haiku every day for the rest of my life. I'm excited about this challenge! Also, along with my daily poem, I will be reading at least four lines of another author's poetry. I'll try to include that here also. So I'm thinking - how difficult can it be to read and then write one poem a day? We will see! - Claudia

Oh Dear!

I've called Orion
Zoli, Sarie and sometimes Jim.
I've called Sarie
Orion, Jim and sometimes Zoli.
I've called Zoli
Orion, Sarie and sometimes Jim.
I’ve called Jim
Zoli, Orion and sometimes Sarie.

Orion flatly said yesterday,
"Mom, I’m not Zoli or Sarie or Jim.
I’m Orion.”  (Oh dear!)
I answered, “Of course you are!”
The world is indeed round.  I remember...
Mom calling me Jim and John
before saying Claudia.
