Life is shifting back to normal.
Things are looking up again.
Google says about the weather:
”and tomorrow there’ll be rain”
My Prayer
Help me have a gentle heart.
Help me use my mind.
Help me speak with thoughtful words.
Help me to be kind.
Uvalde, Texas
The children of Uvalde
are a mem’ry of the past.
We’ve all gone on to other things.
The outrage doesn’t last.
Kids across the nation practice up
their spelling skills, and
interrupt their lessons for
their Active Shooter drills.
Oh, well.
The President Got COVID
The President got COVID, so
he has to work alone.
He talks with friends and confidants,
but does it on the phone.
He’s been both vaxxed and boosted,
but he got it anyway.
The moral of the story is:
Old COVID’s here to stay.
Housework
I’ve washed the dishes, and
I’ve swept the floors.
I’ve tidied the shelves, and
I’ve lined the drawers.
I’ve done ev’rything
I have to do….
but, since it’s chores,
I’ll never get through.
The Letter
Today I got a letter
that someone to me did send.
Somehow my life feels better
with a letter from a friend.
Hangars
Hangers are a mystery.
They’re never where they ought to be.
They somehow feel that they are free
to migrate through the house, you see.
My Garden
I have rabbits. I have slugs…
and, very likely, other bugs.
They come with hearty appetite
to eat up ev’ry plant in sight.
Bunny Warfare
The bunnies hop around my yard.
They’re looking for a treat.
I want my plants for beauty.
They want my plants to eat.
School Shootings
Uvalde’s just so yesterday.
We hardly can remember.
But, someone now is planning
for another in September.
Oh, well.
