Hey, Mom. A suggestion.

So according to Dad's comment on my Poetry by Numbers post, on Friday you wondered aloud, in the privacy of your own home, about what we remembered from our childhoods. Within 48 hours, and without any direct contact with either of us, you had a poem from each of your children about our experiences, impressions and sensory memories.

In case you're wondering--or think you might like to--about other things, I've taken the liberty of putting together a little list of suggestions:

• "I wonder if Jen's car is finished acting up..."


• "I wonder if José will win the lottery..." (For something like this, you should really go with someone who actually plays the lottery, is my thinking.)


• "I wonder if airline prices will drop as drastically as long-distance did..."


• "I wonder if the Bush administration will ever come to its senses..."


• "I wonder if scientists will come up with cures for cancer, poverty and global warming, all in one week..."
  

No pressure or anything, but I'm just saying. If you've got the power...

(Anyone else wondering about anything?)
