NaPoWriMo #7 - Love, Funny Side Up

Our assignment for day 7 was to write a funny love tanka... for details on what this form entails, visit the Read Write Poem Website.


the night they met

a lewd comment overheard followed by a slap
a beer pitcher poured over his head in anger
another he stood by watching
impressed by her fire
their relationship began when he apologized

    I've just made a similar comment about another of these love tankas, but I have to say it here too: what a great story! It makes me wish/hope that it actually happened somewhere in real life!

    I like how it literally ends with the apology!

    Michelle,
    it makes me a bit uncomfortable to read what I know to be the very true and very beautifully told story of how I met your mother!!

    Love it!
    dad
