In context with the previous haiku, it must be pointed out that “together we slept” simply means we fell asleep in the family room near each other, NOT that we “slept together”

After together /
we slept, she protested much./
She had been drinking.

I visited a friend, who served me chocolate from the Big Island. We drifted off to platonic sleep. I dreamed. These are versions of the same dream haiku. I don’t know what she dreamed of.

We ate choco-late./
Holding hands,we fell asleep,/
dreaming of palm trees.
————
We ate chocolate late./
I caressed her face, hair, hands;/
We dreamed of gold sands.

We ate chocolate late./I caressed her face and hands./We dreamt golden sands.

When she finally let/
me in, she had the softest/
skin I’d ever felt.

I wanted 2b/
the last to greet/
U with Good Morning/
on yer fone,/
and without warning/
text Good Afternoon/
and ask: “How U Doin’?”/
and lastly 2 say/
enjoy the day!

A friend,/
far brighter than I am,/
told me this phrase./
I’d think on it for days/
before I’d understand.

Don’t exhibit the symptoms/
of Cranial-Rectal Inversion Syndrome.

What should I do?/
Mothers like you /
are so rare,/
the way you love and care./
To abstain/
strikes me as insane.

I dont know yer town that well./
From what i can tell/
ice cream at DQ/
MIGHT be ok,/
or confuse/
us if closed/
on Sunday,/
as I suppose./
Yer thoughts?/
I’m caught!
