Time is running out.

A final blitz through the house,

expelling all dust.

Quick, wipe the counters!

Oh, the pillows need fluffing!

The guests have arrived.

The mask falls in place.

A serene smile welcomes all.

Enter if you dare.

This series is intended to highlight the ridiculous antics of adulthood – a milestone we all wanted to reach as quickly as we could. Unfortunately, the reality of adulthood is not the endless cake and cookie feast we all believed it to be. It turns out, there are a lot of monthly bills and no one cooks you dinner!

    Thanks for your thoughtful haiku!
    Love you!
