Two Thumbs Up

Such a simple sign
A way to show approval
Give me two thumbs up

Running Late or the Tale of the Lost Substitute Bus Driver

Mr. Bus Driver Guy
I saw you speeding by
directions in your hand

At the stop we stood
hoping that you would
find us before school

The minutes ticked on by
still no Bus Driver Guy
What are we to do?

Kids! Get in the car!
The school is not that far
I’ll drive you there myself

Be Kind

Dare to show kindness
For kindness is a virtue
You will feel better

President’s Day

It’s President’s Day
Honoring a few or all?
Must be just a few

Frozen Peace

Frozen solid trail
Snow softly falling on me
Alone and at peace

A Night at the Races

We went to a fundraising game
Betting on horses by name
As the videos played
We became more dismayed
For most our wagers were lame

The Old Neighborhood

I used to live in Toledo
I had fun friends, it was neat-o
My son’s there today
For a weekend away
He won’t go to places that we’d go

Bad Valentine’s Day Poetry

Roses are red
So are some apples
You’re hooked to my heart
Like a fish on a grapple


Roses are red
Some apples are green
In the orchard of love
You’d be my queen


Pistachios are nuts
and you’re nutty too
I wouldn’t be salty
To be mixed up with you

Triple Overtime

They almost won it
The Cavaliers were so close
Alas, not their night

Another Beginning

Arizona news
Pitchers and catchers report
Hope it’s a good year
