GRANDMA'S BLUE BOY
WITH EGG IN HAND
AND ITCHY FINGERS
Little boy blue, come throw your egg.
Your mom's in the kitchen; just aim for her leg.
Where's the little boy with the mischievous grin?
Why, he's hatching a plan for his egg. Are you in?
Will you stop him? No, not I.
I'd rather see him let 'er fly!
CUTE AND FUN put a smile on my face:)
ReplyDeleteWhen I saw the title of your post, I wondered if it was Gainsborough. My mom had a copy of that on the wall in her room when I was growing up, and I attribute being around art early in life to my degree in art history. But no masterpiece can compare to the love of family. What a doll he is!
ReplyDeleteSweet picture! Love the poem - does that prose just flow out of you? What is your creative process? I am amazed and impressed at your ability to write poetry.
