Grandchildren's Vacation At Annville Paradise 2017 (Senryu) Poem by NHIEN NGUYEN MD

For their vacation
Four kids came to grandparents
Three weeks, Summer fun.

Luggage fully packed
They were ready to depart
Anytime of day.

They loved their Subway
And they came there any day
During first ten days.

They loved grandma's meals
But whole egg and stewed pork dish
Was their most favorite.

They played on I-pad
They ran and played in the yard
Raced cars on driveway.

Many times, they swam
They hit balls on tennis court
And played on tree house.

They played in sand box
They collected fresh flowers
Rested in hammocks

Because of the rain
Dutch Wonderland was delayed
Until better day.

Happily they came
But after walking five hours
They asked to go home.

One half day of joy
At Limestone Springs Fishing Place
They caught thirteen trouts.

Hershey Choc'late World
Gave them many happy smiles
With their treats and rides.

They mixed with ice-cream
Blue berries or raspberries
Which they freshly picked

At the end of stay
They enjoyed Ruby Tuesday
Talked about good days.

Three weeks came to end.
Before saying their goodbye
They've longed for next time.
