Let Them Eat Cookie

 

I put my cookies in a jar,

I put the jar in my car,

I drove the car very far,

and parked it under a star.

I spoke a moment on my phone,

and found the jar bare to the bone,

it seems the cookies have all flown,

I shouldn't have left them all alone.

Taking a Moment

 

Sometimes doing nothing,

just lying in the sun,

without deeds or thoughts,

can be kind of fun.

is taking a moment.

Simply Spring

The garden's in chaos,
things are quite bad
and Spring slumbers on
snoring like mad.

A snail hurries over
and gives Spring a shake,
planning, if needed
to bribe him with cake.

"Wake up, wake up
you have to see reason -
Winter is leaving
and we don't have a season!"

Spring jumps and mutters:

"Sorry! Sorry my dear,
nobody told me
I'm on early this year."

Mission Impossible

A little bear has 

set himself a mission - 

he is going to climb
to the top of a cushion.

The dolls are concerned,
perhaps he should stop
but the bear is going
all the way to the top.

I made for my SIL Ella.

French Cheese

 We opened the window
to let in the breeze
and immediately felt
the censure of trees - 

Even fresh air
cannot, with ease,
battle the odor of
a good French cheese.

Small Things Make a Life

A seed to sow

A place to go

A walk to take

Something to make,

A life.

♡

A seed to sow - 

Working on my autumn veggie garden.

A place to go - 

Planning for happier days.

A walk to take -

A favorite again now that the weather is cooler.

Something to make -

Made these napkin holders for the table 

from recycled paper rolls.

Life. So precious.

Round Like a Ball

I remember

when I was small,

I thought it so nice

to be a ball.

All you do is

play the whole day,

and if you're not happy

you just roll away.

for my soccer-obssessed nephew.

And yes, the cards all rhyme.
