All of your poems made me smile. Thank you very much for sharing your creativity and your thoughtfulness. I should state that Jackie wins and I now believe the best poems end in Refrigerator.
Work itself wasn't better today. And something exceptionally creepy happened. I discovered a chyrssalis in the skin of a pistachio. It startled me a great deal. This was in the last bit of the pistachio package, so I'm left wondering if I've been eating bugs.
OK, back to happy time things. It was a lovely day outside, wasn't it? Really, I don't know. I was inside all day. I hope it will be nice over the weekend, though.
Today's Question of the Day? is:
What is something that usually cheers you up?
Love,
The Asker

And for Jacklyn's response of tulips....Amen!! Also to Jacklyn, sources tell me that your home is quite near my home. We both sit on opposites sides of the elementary school in the area.
Good to see Minears back! And to respond to the Itsy Bitsy Spider smile, these are the words to a song as sung by one of my children;
Jesus loves me, this I mow
For the Bible tells me so
Little lambs to him below
They are weak but he is strong.
This I mow!!
