A BLANK PIECE OF PAPER by Russ McKay

All stories always start this way
No mistakes have yet been made
The greatest tales that e’er were written
The best plans that e’er were laid

It’s the sculptor’s block of marble
The painter’s canvas white as snow
The threading of the needle
Before one starts to sew

It’s the builder’s first nail or brick
The composers first note upon the staff
The humorist’s first smiling thought
That will make his readers laugh

Blank paper is a lot like life
Make of it what we will
We each write our own life stories
Whether typed or pen or quill

UNTHINKABLE by Russ McKay (aka sillygrandpa.com)

I heard someone say “…that’s UNTHINKABLE!”
And that really caused me to think
I bet that I could have thought of it
Thought of it quick as a wink

I’m thinking almost all the time
It’s something that I like to do
But sometimes what I think about
I’m not sure I want to tell you

 I think thinking should be private
‘Cause thoughts aren’t always nice
There are thoughts that I try rethinking
But I always think the same thing twice

So after all this thinking ’bout “Unthinkable”
I still have some doubt in my head
All that good thinking was wasted
And I wish that word hadn’t been said

I love to play under leaves in a pile
I dive right in…can’t help but smile
You can get yourself covered
And you won’t be discovered
‘Til you pop your head up after a while

But yesterday I got a surprise
When I jumped in some leaves piled high
When I got near the ground
That’s when I found
I wasn’t the first to arrive

My neighbor Billy was there
He had jumped in the pile on a dare
We both bumped our heads
A pile won’t hold two kids
Of that we’re now sorely aware

THE SPYDA by Russ McKay (aka sillygrandpa.com)

There once was a girl named Ida

When about to sit down she spied a

Large crawly thing

From the ground emerging

Caused her to exclaim “It’s a spyda!”

Well she was so scared she froze

So numb she could not feel her toes

The spyda kept crawling

It’s nearness appalling

Then it suddenly jumped on her clothes

Ida screamed the loudest you’ve ever heard

The spyda thought her loud screaming absurd

Because of her fears

He had to cover his ears

Even his eyesight was blurred

Well the townspeople all came to see

What the reason for screaming could be

Ida stricken with fear

As the people came near

Yelled “Somebody please help me!”

Then Ms. Froggy leaned over to Ida

Said “My Dear that’s only a spyda”

“No reason to hate him”

Ms. Froggy then ate him

Ida’s spyda was now deep insida

I’d like to learn the language
Of some foreign land
Then I could talk to all those people
And they would understand

Those people speaking in Great Britain!

Mom and Dad make me brush my teeth

In the morning and at night

THE COW by Russ McKay (aka sillygrandpa.com)

What if you were a cow

What would you be doing now?

For animals bovine

Grass is divine

And they eat more than a sow

A mouthfull of grass is a cud

It’s composed of both grass and mud

Cows think they are yummy

And with an extra tummy

The cud goes down with a thud

Cows never ever eat meat

Mostly stand around on their feet

They’ll squat down in the grassTo let rain showers pass

Then stand on dry ground…that’s so neat

Cows weigh almost nine hundred pounds

They’re thankful that green fields abound

They must keep eating all day

To stay looking that way

Cow shapes are mostly round

Do you think that you’d like a cow’s life?

Would you like to be a bull’s wife?

Cows give milk every day

Without any pay

I feel certain cow boredom is rife

Our weekend guests brought their little child
He was most gentle, meek and mild
He only did what he was told to do
And every sentence he’d end “Thank You”

He washed his hands without being told
Yet he was only eight years old

He may not be able generic cheap viagra to gain an erection. You can shop link levitra sale add as many jelly as you like in order for you to clear your mind of all your problems today.

He behaved the best the weekend through

I was amazed by this little lad
The best guest I have ever had
It was a pleasure to even know him
I’d trust him far as I could throw him!
