Memories

After shaking,
They’d settle down—
Sixteen white cubes
Arranged in rows.

Looking across,
Down and around,
Letters linking, 
Jotting down words.

When time was up,
We’d read our lists,
Assigning points
By letter count.

I was always
Amazed at him—
His word savvy—
Boggle with Dad.

Reading (NaPoWriMo Day 27)

New book—
Pages to read,
Plot hook!

The words
Splayed on the page—
Songbirds.

Immerse,
Capture my heart—
In verse.
