Valentine's Day

Making favorite foods and treats

Cleaning up after stinky feet

Washing clothes

and wiping noses

Sure I'd love it 

if you give me roses.

Being asked "How was your Day."

listening to all you say

Sleeping late

as a Saturday date

telling me that "You look great"

Tiny surprises throughout the year

Just knowing that you are here

Every day you say you care

by the lovely smile you wear

Hallmark Holiday it may be

Happy Valentine's Day

to You from Me.

Four Feathered Days

On the first day of Christmas
My true love gave to me
A partridge in a pear tree.

A bird is grand
but I don't understand
this partridge in a tree.

On the second day of Christmas
My true love gave to me
Two turtle Doves and
A Partridge in a Pear Tree.

Stop sending me gifts
from the skies above.
Try to remember dear
You're my true love
And just say NO to Two Turtle Doves!

On the third day of Christmas
My true love gave to me
Three French hens, Two Turtle Doves
And a Partridge in a pear tree.

Birds again?
What is with men;
The same gifts over and over again.

On the fourth day of Christmas
my true love gave to me
Four Calling birds, Three French Hens
Two Turtledoves and a
Partridge in a Pear Tree.

I forgave you once
I forgave you twice
It was my mistake to
forgive you thrice

No more BIRDS
That's it I quit
Tomorrow dear
please Get with it!!!!

I'm Not Feeling the Fun

The tree is up

the lights are lit

carols are being sung

Cookies are baked

and candies have been made

the stockings all are hung

Packages are wrapped

and cards are written

to each and everyone

So why is it that

this holiday

I'm not feeling the fun?

It's not just me

I've asked around

and have heard from

one and all

It's Chirstmas time

and even still

I don't feel like

decking the hall

Tis the season

It's a good enough reason

but it's not

quite played it's part

Hope the Grinches

magical powers

can open up our hearts

Promises of Tomorrow

Promises of tomorrow

help get me through today.

a vast expanse of knowledge

soon will be underway.

Activities abound

Holidays surround

Friendships revisited

Emotions overwhelm

Promises of tomorrow

help get me through today.

Working my fingers to the bone

It's the American way.

Emotions overwhelm

Activities abound

Friendships revisited

Holidays surround

Promises of tomorrow

help get me through today.

Creativity in many forms

gives me much to say.

Friendships revisited

Emotions overwhelm

Holidays surround

Activities abound

Promises of tomorrow

help get me through today.

Promises of tomorrow

help get me through today.

Time

Time to return to reality.

Time to count down 

to the next holiday.

Time to remember 

those we've forgot.

Auld Lang Syne

gave us that thought.

 Time to work

and pretend we care.

Time to for online

shopping at work.

Time to stress out

over what to get.

 

Time to bake 

family recipes again 

and have the help

of long time friends.

Time for peace on Earth

goodwill towards all.

Time for us to

all recall.

Time to remember

what time it

truly is.

Labor Day

Hip Hip Hurrah
It's Labor Day
an extra moment to
go out and play.

Party people
and delicious food
Beautiful weather
helps set the mood.

Last of the concerts
down by the sea
Time to make the best
of great company.

Enjoy this day set aside
for the work force
As reality will
set in in due course.


Hip Hip Hurrah
It's Labor Day
an extra moment to
go out and play.

Shortest Month of the Year

It's the first day of

The shortest month of year.

That's right February is here.

A month filled with history of

African American Society.

And fortunately not only that

but I get to wear a birthday hat.

Celebrate love on Valentines day.

Learn about great men on President's day

It's even Washington and Lincoln's birthday.

And let's not forget Groundhog's day!

The shortest month of year

2012 has an extra day I hear.

That's right a Leap Year February is here.
