Shana Aubrey Harris is unique and a special precious gift!
Offspring numero dos doth tantalize utmost focus
sans setting her sight to envision womanly youthful zeal.
the young lady - Shana Aubrey Harris
unique and a special precious gift!
Shana Aubrey Harris born two days
after ole Punxsutawney i.e. the Doctor Phil -
of woodchucks Latin Name = Marmota monax nest
resembled a Rastafarian hair weave
which creature rattled with ire and peeveishness,
when rudely roused with leave me alone countenance
from his abode February fourth as baby two by jeeve
two thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine
didst heave just two days after said groundhog
got prodded to predict what surprises old man winter
would deliver from his snowy white sleeve
then juiced when he tried to tug git cozy once again,
an ear-piercing cry rent quiet of his Redmond
Proficiency Academy den (long since burrowed back
to his Bend, Oregon tunnel)
since thy prized pride and joy she now - year 2018
attends Colchester Institute baste in Great Britain.
Wails surpassed decibel deemed tolerated, hence
the entire webbed threshold did pro nouns
hood lee reverb and rebound and he could not
muffle ears to block out sound,
nor would said creature trust his beady eyes
unveils how metamorphosis courtesy
“Mother Nature” doth continue to astound
cavalierly, indiscriminately, wantonly crowned
yielding zealous woodchuck instinct
to survive residing underground
equally amazingly transforming gangly infant
into a stunning material viz par sans
as fashionably attired homecoming queen crowned
soon to be freshly minted high school senior,
(diploma already acquired) and perhaps
(essentially this English Institute a stepping stone
for those) college-bound.
seventeen plus years ago elapsed in a flash,
(aforementioned daughter twill evince
her nineteenth birthday since
initially crafting this email)
as a newborn mandated to exist with mom jeans from
womb er full world uterine, she did plash ordained
by mother nature decreed she must wriggle
and leave the placental stash
without (of course) leaving a mass of trash.
thus, exit from birth canal complemented
second and last daughter of the Harris mix
whereby, she communicated via clucks
just for kickstarting to gabble sounds vocalizing
sounds of cowbell licks influenced
by Donald Duck and Leif Erics son,
also enlisting literary feedback from Barack Obama,
and his lovely brood of chic chicks attired
in wall den pond duress uniform bespeaking
with his pointed skill teaching
pre-presidential days within ivied bricks
primal utterances she acquired (courtesy of Alice Cooper)
retained like toys in attics.
like any buck minister fully taken aback
this mister mom did fuss and fawn
from one Jimmy crack
corn to the next rhyme, which captive
infant audience gave no flack,
precious heir from loins papa did help spawn -
an everyday cracker Jack of all trades whereat
n'er tiring as child rearing more challenging
than untying Gordian knot without lack
king and how The Idler Wheel Is Wiser
than the Driver of the Screw and Whipping Cords
Will Serve You More than Ropes Will Ever Do to pack
a Judy ish us punch -
though thee Punim born with
adroit skill to quack mimicking gripped banshees,
denizens frenziedly shrieking out
the box of Pandora - as if one felt a whack
and a wallop, nonetheless infant younger daughter
a boon no matter developmental delay strife
wool worth effort and propensity
to revel qua biological miracle
re: said offspring did inadvertently
teach me lessons of life to cherish and savor
each giggle, laughter, and smile
the feeling experienced amidst
cramped living quarters plus frustration
discombobulated bubbling rife
introducing yours truly to
the hen peck queen moody blue wife.
like a human handy dandy blues clues
sponge the youngest progeny absorbed auditory/
visual multitude within each axon and neuron
of that infantile sensory “sir” kit board
aware at a tender young age how she struggled
to string words together to convey a mood
predilection with language impediment
possibly passed thru umbilical cord.
no idea thru a combination of genetics and biology
(i.e. nature versus nurture) that burnished beautiful lass
of an offspring wrought
a smart girl, an apple of the eye
per this father who never thought
that thru attempts at conception
sought supremely melded genes,
he thought loves labors last,
t’would come to naught delivered us an artistic,
intrinsic, linguistic lass who for no price can be bought!
