MOTHER-NATURE'S DAY

In bloom today,
where my path goes;
honeysuckle and
cherokee rose.

ON SECOND THOUGHT

Careful what you ask for!
Snareful's what you get!

To undo a wish fulfilled,
no genie's been born yet.

CARPE POEM

Fingers on keys,
mind on the day—
may there be, please,
a "pome" on the way.

NO LONGER THE "BEES' KNEES"

Latest symptom
of beekeeper woes;
having to count all those
little bees' toes.

FLY BY

Fly-buzzed
or -bugged?

Well, why not try
writing a poem on the fly?

SPRINGY

Trees have frothed out
green and growy.

Cloud-puffs in blue skies are doughy;
flowers showy; breezes blowy.

Grass is green
and almost mowy.


WELL REWARDED

We ate lunch late to celebrate
the triumphs of our day;
helping other workers
(the help, itself, our pay).
