Getting old now
loves telling tales
Army stories
are his forte
No war for him
guns on the rack
Not shooting range
Score penciled in
Sharpshooter him
Medal to prove
Wore alongside
Good Conduct pin
Did Radar man
once shoot that gun
Basic Training

A Woman's Touch
It takes a woman's touch
Woman's touch for to cook
Cook I said, not to make
I make sandwiches, egg,
ham, and cheese oh so fine
Meatballs and spaghetti
and follow recipes
It's finer touch, deserts
pretty dishes she cooks
Woman touches for those

Three-generation bed party, my daughter, her daughter, and Mrs. Jim. [First posted by me, Jimmhov on 2018 (URL)] |
A Slight Problem?
I dreamed I was going
to a party
Nice party where pillows and
blankets rule
A slumber party sublime
Kids love them
All my buddies coming and
Some good friends
I don't know by whom I got
my invite
Lost the envelope

Snowmoon Last Night
Driving home last night we pulled over to view. Just above the horizon was a magnificent scene, the moon, a February Full moon in bloom. It was showing its features as white with an orange tinted background. It's name, being in February is the Snowmoon, heralding in falling snow, the kind the kids' snowmen are made of.
But being in Southeast Texas, close to the Gulf of Mexico shore, we won't be having snow this year. The chances are gone for that come midmonth February. Our temperatures are now in the 70, 80, and a few 90Fs from here on out. Yes, we may have a cold wave come in from the north but still no snow for us. That comes about once every ten years.
And anyway, we enjoy seeing this moon in full with no snow, it is sooo very pretty. Maybe next year.
