Making Sense


You add two apples and three oranges.

What do you get ?

You get too much for one person to eat at once.


Add this and subtract that and what do you get ?

If I had  a quarter it would buy a chocolate ice cream

cone.


So I gave them the eleventies.

Nine, ten, eleven, eleventy one, eleventy two etc.

They never heard of the eleventies.

And they thought I didn't know anything !

Whose stupid ?


I had a bag of marbles and a cowboy lunch kit.

I had arrived big time.


Dogs and horses, fishing and camping,

Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn !

How about that stuff.

Singing about the lone prairie, whatever that meant.

The important stuff.


I just got the run around about

The Easter Bunny,Santa Claus,

The Tooth Fairy and The Sandman.

I always seemed to be sleeping when they came by.


At least I could see the work of Jack Frost,

Old Man Winter, Mother Earth and Father Time.

I didn't even want to think about The Boogie Man.

Although I could hardly wait for Halloween.
