Going Silly
(image source: photobucket.com)
I thought my eyes
were going sorta silly
When I saw rising
up from a lily
Beauty of the morning
a water nymph divine
Feeling it must be
a fantasy of mine
Or playing tricks on me
could have been the light
I watched in wonder’s gaiety
as she took off in flight
Twisting and turning around
spinning cartwheels in air
She was the grandest vision
that I had seen anywhere
While I hid from sight
in the bushes tucked away
I found myself wishing
I could stay all day
But mother was calling
which the nymph heard
And so I backed up
not uttering a word
Smiling I skipped home
already planning my return
With hopes the trip would
another sighting of her earn!

The Three Pigs Merry
(image source: google.oom/images)
The three pigs merry
as any pigs could be
Set out one day
their family to see
Along the way together
they all sang happily
While anxious to visit
their “grammy and pappy”
Of the wolf ever watchful
were those merry three
Who chased their cousins
around without having mercy
Blowing down their houses
in a huffing spree
Before those little pigs
could ever get free
But these three siblings
had refused to be
Afraid of a wolf
when smaller was he
For these particular pigs
were hogs you see
And much larger than
their cousins by three
The big bad wolf
I think you’d agree
To attack them would
just be plum crazy!
