The royal nest: A 50-word poem for the Kudos poetry competition
<H1>The royal nest</H1>

She looks upon the mess
And laughing, says
I am queen of all this

This house is my kingdom
These children, my subjects
My cat, court jester.

Jakey throws a tantrum
And a Tonka truck
Chips her tooth

And startled, she says 
Damn, but at last 
I get my crown!

Your cat is your court jester? I do love cats. They are funny. And loyal. And funny looking haha. And like a teddy bear chicken noodle soup tour soul heart. Love your throne. I'm Oatmeal.

Thank you so much for your comment! Yes, I have two court jesters, actually. Ha ha.

But in this case, the children, cat and mess belong to a fictional character who survives the parenting of young children by imaging she is a queen. :-)

Thank you, @prydefoltz! In my case it's mostly remembering back. Two of my babies are almost 17 and my oldest is 20. :-)

Hi @qira. I'm not sure why you posted your link to my 50-word short story challenge here. :-)

You should always put your contest or challenge entry links in the comments of the contest or challenge post. In this case, it's here: https://steemit.com/challenge/@jayna/fifty-word-challenge-results-and-a-new-prompt. I had not seen your entry, because that is where I look for all entries to the challenge. But I also always search the tag to make sure I didn't miss anyone's entry. 

I hope that helps! (And whoever "his sister" is, I hope that person gets the help she needs too! Ha ha.)
