• A stormy June day
• the calm prairies of Kansas
• their May basket came
• a little late,
• always.
• In the hall mother shielded her six hour babe
• As a twister threatened to wisk us away.
• Instead it spun our souls into one.
• It was just like in Oz
• but no ruby slippers were left
• just the ones made for dress-up and play.

Growing Up

• Planted on a farm to grow.
• Cute, cuddly kittens
• scratched and made my nose explode.
• Tom and Jerry were best,
• only when dads chocolate chair
• swallowed me by his side.
• Beautician was a fun game to play
• but the bows and curls never stayed.
• Lilacs and roses,
• pop the heads off for mom.
• Feed and herd the cows,
• help bail hay,
• ride in the combine,
• nurse the piglets,
• gather the eggs.
