In keeping my promise to change things up on the blog this year, today's post is an homage to the poetry of breasts.

What, you're probably thinking, is boob Haiku? 

If you're not familiar with this poetry genre, here's a quick refresher.  My inspiration for this post came from attending a recent writing retreat in Mexico. Each morning, participants read aloud Haikus written the night before, on an assigned topic. They were both fun to compose and share. And then I remembered a few Boob Haikus that made their way into reader comments on a previous incarnation of this website. Thus, Boob Haiku was born.

Palindrome

One boob, one tit, one

bra that doesn't fit my poor

irregular self.

The springing of 36D

Cups drop to bed, girls

separate no more - released

bliss at day's finish.

My boobs grew bigger.

Thanks to hormones and the pill.

More of me to love.

Boobs embrace autumn wearing

Cashmere sweater sets.

Uneven cleavage

One is round, and one is straight

Did you notice it?

Back Fat

Discovered today

Some new skin, under my arm,

Over my bra, sigh.

Sagging soft bosom

Far from summer's youthful days

Loved for life nourished.

Wide, warm lips lead life

ever returning they paw

pillows to heaven.
