My boss has the exact same hairstyle, lol! Although his hair, in my opinion, is too long for a mohawk, he still gels it up everyday and comes to work like that.
Sawyer is adorable, but my boss on the otherhand.....not so much ;)
This is a sweet and light-hearted poem and I really enjoyed it. It made me laugh and smile.
Clearly your job has been done

Thank you so much, costellsgirl :-) Glad to hear this look works better on my grandson than on your boss. LOL :-) Brooke

Hahaha, you are very welcome, Brooke! I can't take my boss serious with that hair ;)

A warm sense of humour is your grandson who would be pleased to see what his mother has created for children at his age respond to things which make them different.

One day, he'll ask, 'was that the latest hairdo?' He looks very cute! Cute rhyming and poetic style which is most fitting to the wording. Most enjoyable as always. Faye

Comment from rama devi
Hee hee--that is an adorable photo and certainly makes the whole world laugh but in the most innocent way. Charming write from Sawyer's POV. Especially found this part tickling:
T'was Mama who gelled up my hair,
then snapped me naked in the bath.
Without a stitch of clothes to wear,
I shuddered when she gelled my hair,
poor me with every part stripped bare
(and folks think mine's a primrose path).
Great rhyme, meter and flow. Nice presentation. Fine alliteration (etc.) here and there
Chuckling...

Sandra, thanks so much. The day will come ten years or so from now when Miranda and I have to hide a whole lot of photos and poems from him for a while so that he doesn't hate us for embarrassing him. LOL I appreciate your generous sixth star. :-) Brooke
Comment from Trybuck
Tis as plain as the nose on my face
Or better yet, me hair out of place
Mama desires to bring disgrace
To this baby's bath time space
Like Really! Can't she understand
I'm growing into a handsome man
That needs his dignity in tact
And that folks is just plain facts
Well done with your modified triolets... I'm through now, Buck

I admire Sawyer for the sacrifice he has constantly made to let scores of readers like myself get smiles and joy from the poems like this beautiful endearing one you have written. xx Michelle

Comment from Bobby Jo
Laughing, I am. Very cute, and of course it's not the child's fault for being so darn cute and innocent. This put a smile on my face.
