Life is Often Too Seriously Taken, so for that reason, I'm going to post a silly poem from time-to-time. These first several will each be taken from a small booklet entitled, Lighten Up! 100 Funny Little Poems, compiled and edited by Bruce Lansky.

Morning Ritual


Morning Ritual

I get up each morning
And dust off my wits,
Then pick up the paper
And read the obits.
If my name isn't there,
Then I know I'm not dead.
I eat a good breakfast
And go back to bed.

ha! Not when you're a gardener! Or anyone with something to do! ;-)

Haha, great poem Shady - I could have SO gone back to bed this morning!!!
(that's what comes of 3 days hard labour in the garden when you've lazed around all winter!)

Hi Liz! Looks like I'd better come over and see what you've been up to! :-)
