Quiet Likeness

Forget the crunchy goldfish.
Toasted oats - so yesterday!
The key to being rev'rent,
Sitting still while speakers dish,
Is to draw the girl beside you
Catch her charm in ev'ry stroke.



Merci, sweet Sabbath Stranger
For your sketch and rev'rence too.

A Hungry Citizen

Living in the USA
Lots of freedoms come your way.
Blog in rhyme if you want
Even use a dif'frnt font.

My blood is red and white and blue
Patriotic through and through.
Apple pie is the best!
For sure I'd ace a civics test.

Honest Abe, I'd love to meet.
Hot dogs are my fav'rite treat.
So no surprise I got to greet
This kindred spirit - nugget meat.

All 50 states in one sweet bite.
To resist the taste - so impolite.

Our Newest Addition :)

Some say you get the biggest breaks

When you’re the youngest one.

But, golly gee and goodness sakes -

It’s hard to be the little one!

So, she asked with puppy eyes

“Mommy, please, and, um, daddy too –

I’ve really got to talk to you!

I think it fair, I think it wise

To let you know it’s time tonight -

For a brother. Is that alright?"

Who snubs the plea of one

So cute – so dear – so young?

Blue she wanted - so blue she got!

We even named him : Little Scott.

Hallelujah! Haiku Update

Three uses for this
Corrugated U-haul box:
Store and move and blog?

Way too much to do
No time to update their blog.
Now the task is mine.

I might be a square
But, I see their every move.
Tracking what goes on.

Birthdays past were grand!
Wow, they're all in school now.
Did you know they moved?

Only broke one plate. :(
Roller coaster fun for some.
AP Tests were hard!

Kittens found new homes
Got lost inside I-KE-A!
Yippee, got a Wii.

Girl Scouts on TV.
Micheal Bolton contest won -
Second honeymoon. :)

Now you're in the know.
Sorry, no pics. Gotta run -
Hot date with the Tape.
