Keeping the Beard

A glance in the mirror did show

That mustache just had to go

She had to be strong

Since it took her so long

To get the darn thing to grow

Words Worth

When you “should” time away

You’ll lose time day by day

Until you see that there is none

And you’ll wonder what you’ve done

You’re  guided by what you say

Morning Musings

It snowed again, overnight

Eager eyes basked in the sight

Of frosted branches and ground

Squirrels scurrying around

Hunting food with all their might

Hi Ho Silver

No one with which to play

So, on such a cold day

She bundled up to go outside

And made a snow pony to ride

And together they rode away

There’s a jolly elf

Somewhere sitting on a shelf

Waiting to surprise

Hidden so well, you can’t tell

Twas Fido who found him first
