Two bunnies scamper in my grass.

They’re sorta cute….in a way.

But now they ate my poppy

and I Wish They’d Go Away.

My frappuccino mocha’s

disappearing from the store.

I’m not a Happy Camper…

I can’t buy it any more!

People are buying. 

The sales out of sight.

They’re buying things “pretty”.

They’re buying things “bright”.

Our Book Club season’s over.

We don’t plan to meet in June.

We take a break for summer.

So, we won’t be meeting soon.

By fall, we hope it’s diff’rent.

We hope we’ll meet again.

And, we can talk together ‘bout

the words from an author’s pen.

I’ve begun to discover purple.

It’s a shade I wouldn’t wear.

But, the purple blossoms in my yard

bring beauty beyond compare.

Today I wish you happiness.

Today I wish you health.

Today I wish you sunny skies.

Today I wish you wealth.

Today I wish a happy heart.

Today I wish you joy.

Today I wish you friendship

and all that you enjoy.

I wake each morning and step aside.

I listen for my cue.

Each day brings opportunity.

Each day brings something new.

The daily paper brings its news

of heartache and of woe.

And underscores for us each day:

Mankind has far to go.

The candle burns

a steady flame.

Its clear pure light

is in your name.

A little brown bunny sits

under my rose…

camouflaged, silent,

wrinkling his nose.
