"If you had to rewrite Humpty Dumpty, how would you do it?" I asked my family on Easter. We sat in the living room thinking. "Humpty Dumpty sat on a brick, Humpty Dumpty posed for a pic, But all of his looks, and all of our wits, Couldn't recover the camera's lost bits."
Special thanks to my family, especially Ben, for their assistance in writing this poem. Special thanks to my dad for corrupting the final image and using his selfie stick to photograph my mom, dad, and me. And, if I may say so, special thanks to myself for decorating the egg and taking the Humpty Dumpty pictures. ;) To all my readers, happy National Poetry Month from my family, a half-dozen eggheads.

By the way, who are those old people in the photo? I think the lady bares some resemblance to myself.

Thanks for the A+, Mom! I think that lady is you. Whoever she is, she must have a sense of humor because went along with my idea.
