Does some of Spring think no “not yet”?
Or is it Winter knowing not when to quit?
Tardy Winters make Spring like Fall
Tender shoots bloom not at all
Spring never condemns the Summer’s start
And Autumn is patient in playing its part
I blame Winter for each seasonal cheat
So I moved Down South and hit “delete”

Today I’ve got some news
I’ve learned how to tie my own shoes
It started out rotten
‘Stead of tyin’ I was knottin’
But I finally made two nice bows
The point is you have to tie
The laces so that when you try
The bow comes out easy
As though it was greasy
And you’ve got two strands side by side
At first I thought I had got
A bow, but I got a knot
Over and over again
I practiced the bend
But properly tied they were not
It’s a simple thing to complete
And to tie your own shoes is so neat
There’s only one thing
Besides extra string
Both my shoes are on the wrong feet!

Life throws you many curves not just on the putting green
And many putts look one way but aren’t quite what they seem
You’ll make some curling 30 footers and cheer them when you do
But you’ll also miss some tap-ins before your game is through
And when you achieve a faithful draw with your driver off the tee
It will seem life’s not as hard, as you thought that it would be
But just when your handicap is lowest and your game is going great
That’s when you start doing things that you can’t duplicate

My Beautiful Weed by sillygrandpa.com

One spring I decided to plant some seed
My garden was flowerless and in great need
As they began to bloom I gave extra feed
But they were outshone by one glorious weed
The reddest red and the greenest green
The most beautiful plant I’d ever seen
That weed made my flowers look sick
It’s lush petals were long and thick
Even the bees and birds came to see
How lovely this weed had come to be
Then all of my neighbors stopped by and took note
And the garden editor of the newspaper wrote
“The most wondrous of horticulture indeed!”
She also asked me to save her some seed
And the man from the nursery was a visitor
He turned out to be a vociferous inquisitor
I watered and fed, kept the surround of it clear
It grew more handsome as the Autumn drew near
The flowers all wilted and grew ugly and brown
But my beautiful weed just stood its ground
Then it finally happened on the first night of frost
By the next morning my weed’s beauty was lost
It never did bloom in my garden again
And I miss my weed like I’d miss a friend
But my newest garden is flowered and lively
With a lush green crop of poison ivy

Join his circus they did
And they no longer hid
Circus fans were raptly attentive
Phineas made stars out of fleas

Cartoon Balloon by russ mckay

Some cartoon characters feel sorry for me
‘Cause when they look all they see…
Is someone else’s words and things
Filling MY balloon when it talks and sings
But sometimes I have something to say
Yet without my own balloon I have no way
I was thinking of a cloud to communicate
A huge cumulus would be worth the wait
I could be all kinds of different shapes
Even shaped like a bunch of bright white grapes
Speaking through a cloud would be quite a caper
But for now I’m just stuck on a piece of white paper
Unless you’re reading me on the internet
Where a bright bright screen is the best I can get
And for giving a cartoon balloon this chance to say…
I first want to thank writer Russ McKay
My First Haircut by russ mckay

Today is the day
I get my hair cut away
Dad said it’s OK
But I’m scared anyway
I don’t want this trip
Those scissors could slip
And he might cut my lip
Or my shirt he could rip
At the barber’s store
There was hair on the floor
But no blood and no gore
It was not long before…
He made me sit there
In his big barber chair
Then he pumped it with air
And it rose so my hair…
Was as high as his shears
I was almost in tears
As those scissors came near
“I want outta here!”
But my Dad held me down
As the man trimmed my crown
Then he turned me around
In the mirror I found…
A new looking boy
And my face filled with joy
Then the barber named Roy
Game me a small toy
“You did great my lad
You’re the nicest I’ve had
Most Kids will act bad
Or they get very sad”
“Please come back any time
And your haircut looks fine
So if there is no line
Choose the chair that is mine”
“That was fun Dad
I’m no longer sad
Roy was nice as you said
It’s the best haircut I’ve had!”

Dragonflies have been around longer than history
Where we came from is still quite a mystery

And we soar to treetops no matter the height
We can hover and turn around so fast

Otto wanted to be in my poems
But he always talks in palindromes
Well I had a tough time
Most palindromes do not rhyme
He was basically told to go home
“Yo banana boy” Otto said
And I quickly turned ’round my head
Then he started yellin’
“No lemons no melon”
I told him to go home to bed
“Was it a car or cat I saw?”
Then he yelled “Race fast safe car”
I told Otto he made no sense
And his yellin’ made me tense
I started feeling way below par
“Slap a ham on omaha pals” he cried
As I managed to get him outside
His screaming was real
As he grabbed “Lee a eel”
But poor Otto I could not abide
He looked back at me in the fog
“Go hang a salami I’m a lasagna hog!”
And as he was leavin’
He called “Never odd or even”
Then he was chased by my neighbor’s dog
Talking with Otto’s as hard as it gets
At least he does not have Tourettes
Both backward and forward is he
I called and he looked back at me
