Day 7

This is my tribute to Don Rickles who died yesterday at the age of 90. 

Day 7- Alliteration Poem

There never was a funnier man

Then the fabulous friendly Don Rickles

He could get a ferocious titter 

and his audience atwitter      

By kissing Ol' Blue Eyes for giggles.

He'll always be Mr. Potato Head to me

With his persnickety pretty partner Mrs P

Whenever they got in a pickle

He'd give us a tickle

With his perfectly placed repartee.

Day 6

Day 6- If I Were and If You Were Poems

If I were a photograph and you were a camera

I'd want you to develop my image so glamorous!

If you were a book to read and I was a Library

I'd find you on my shelves and not in a cemetery!

Limerick for Magna

Here's another Limerick for Limerick Day

We live in the town of Magna 

Which is not the same as Magma

It's a great place to live

There's lots of initiative

To be happy and live in Magna!

Day 30-anyway I want it Family History Poem

Day 30-Family History

I recently was given an album

Of photographs of the past

It's full of lovely photos

Of ancestors who were steadfast

There's men in topcoats and suits

And women in high style fashion

And babes wearing cute outfits

When their lives were full of passion

These photographs are amazing

The only problem is this

None of them are labeled

So, no names have come to us

My advice to all you people

Is to label all your pictures

So someone someday will know

Your name in all it's grandeur 

Day 28-Poetweet

Whenever we create anything, I wonder how alike it is to God's creations. We come close whenever we create a child. We are His creations, and we are glorious. 

Day 28-Poetweet

Whenever we create anything, I wonder how alike it is to God's creations. We come close whenever we create a child. We are His creations, and we are glorious.

Had to rewrite it. Too long. 

When we create anything, we wonder how it mimics God's creations. We come closest when we create life. How glorious are His works. Creation. 

Day 27- diatelle poem

Tell

A tale

Do not fail

Tell of your life

Or of a Dragon’s Tail

With his scales of purple Loosestrife

The sky is so dark, cut it with a knife

If the story's of you, there may have been a bell

To wake you up to play a rousing fife

To please someone’s husband or wife 

As they take the fast rail

Happiness rife

Without fail

Ships sail

Dwell

Day 26-Rictameter Poem

Day 26-Rictameter Poem

Lucky

Missing Hanna 

She wasn't her Autism

Her short life had a grand purpose

To teach and show us how to love others

We learned to be better from her

Her legacy is love

She lived, we love

Lucky

Day 25-pensee poetry

Penguins

Cute and funny

Look like they're wearing a tux

Their waddling makes us giggle

Do they make a good pet?

Day 24-Limerick

There once was a girl named Vick

Who thought she could write a lim'rick

She tried and she tried

Yet she couldn't get it right

So she got quite a crick in her neck

Day 23-Quinzain Poem

I came up with a few. 

Babysitting is so fun

They want to play games 

All night long

The youngest generation

Is now so plugged in

Is it good?

Then in honor of Talk Like Shakespeare Day:

Grandchildren are passing fair

I prithee to believe

Bless'd are we

Day 22-Nature Color Poem

Day 23-Nature Color Poem

Nature is a rainbow Heavenly Father has given

Everywhere you look, it's like you are in heaven

He gave us yellow roses to brighten up our day

And blue skies above us in this, the latter-day

We also have green grass that provides us room to play

Our Heavenly Father loves us, earth his grand display. 

Day 21- Poem in My Pocket

I have to preface this. I have a blog called Life in the Library, that until today, I hadn't really considered what that meant. Because of a friend's blog, I found an image I want to use on my blog of a circus. I haven't quite figured out how to use it yet, but it still made me consider writing a poem today on what that means to me.

Life in the Library

Working in a library is sometimes
Like being in the Circus
There's clowns who make you laugh
And wild animals who make you cringe
Then there's a high wire act
When a child screams unendingly
But the most beautiful part is
Like a knife thrower when
A child suddenly gets how wonderful
It is to be able to read!

Day 20-Grammar Poem

Dogs
Going in and going out
Driving us crazy
Treating us like doormen
I wish we had a revolving door
