SEPTEMBER'S POEM

 

 KISSES AND BRAWLS

 

 Gossip, cross-stitch, gooseberry pie,
Makeup, hair-dos and outfits,
It’s okay to giggle, okay to cry,
Okay to shave legs and armpits.

Sports talk wherever, goals, bats and balls,
Staying home from funerals when someone has died,
Being cool at parties, joining in brawls,
Hard to relate to the feelings inside.

But somehow these crazies can merge into one
And share in life’s many adventures,
Laughing and yelling and sorrows and fun
Till they’re old and shopping for dentures.

The little ones wonder to see what they’ve missed
While the older ones miss what they’ve seen,
Whom they have shut out, whom they have kissed,
And what might this rhyming verse mean.

OUR HOUSE

 This is our house.  It's actually a big bigger than it looks from the front, with three bedrooms, but only one bathroom.  One of the three bedrooms has been turned into the Lund Library with over 3,700 books.

This might be how Leonardo da Vinci would see it:

How Dr. Seuss might see it:

How Edvard Munch might see it:

How Giotto might see it:

How Grandma Moses might see it:

How Jack Kirby might see it:

How Jaro Hess might see it:

As Maxfield Parrish might see it:

As Michelangelo might see it:

As Paul Klee might see it:

As Rembrandt might see it:

As Salvador Dali might see it:

As Vincent van Gogh might see it:

As William Congdon might see it:

As Picasso might see it:

As Charles Addams might see it:

How we want to see it:
