Haiku (one single impression) - Bleeding

This week's haiku prompt: Bleeding.

Bleeding hearts? The old medical practice of letting? Sheep? ... wait, sorry - that's bleating. You could go many ways with the prompt from One Single Impression, so I just went with my first response - bleeding knees, care of my creative, fun, silly and a touch-clumsy wunderkind Eli.

Hobbling over
A big fall from the bigtoy
"Kiss my knee, daddy."

Lovely and tender. Nicely done. Eli is a lucky boy.

Big boys need big toys, but they're not so big they can't use a kiss from dad.

This is lovely. Thanks.

A lovely flashback to carefree days of playtime and magical time when Mommy & Daddy's kisses could cure practically anything!
