WHAT RHYMES WITH SUNDAY
By: Julie Duane
What rhymes with Sunday
Is nothing but Monday
Unless you count fun day –
For some folks that's pun day
Then there is Tuesday
That's Gershwin's good news day
But it could be a blues day –
A real born to lose day
Next day is Wednesday
That's for the men's day
A live it up sins day
A beer, wine, or gins day
Then there is Thursday
This must be hers day
A let's shop for furs day
(It's also cat purrs day)
Next there is Friday
A real do or die day
Tell the truth and don't lie day
Or it may be good-bye day
Then at last Saturday
Good for mad hatter day
For saints if they’re latter day
We’re all getting fatter day?
THAT’S IT – I QUIT!!!
Grandchildren
I watch you, little granddaughter playing dress up in your mother's heels and though a vista of the years I see
myself, in trailing dresses and old hats I watch you little grandson peddling fast and furious on your trike and in every little movement of your head I see your fathers smiling face at four I thank you so, most dearest of all children for this extra glimpse of deja vu
Not Too Smart
I'm never as clever As I think I am Which is why I forever Wind up in a jam
