Artwork by Abigail, titled "Mom"


Poem Artwork

Whattayanew?
Brand spanking,
Present-day, unexampled
And hot?

Fresh as a Spring air. . .
Dare the pristine, unsullied and spot!
Cleanse of your soul . . . that venturesome swot!
About my garden, budding, I’m not!

But, being, I am!
A new season, addressed . . .
In trimming my topiaries, last years’ clippings, I've rest
Turning my soil, I’m sowing seeds that grow best!

Under this dastardly clever guise, this is Ted L Glines, and I love Abigail's drawing. I wonder how that version of Mom would look - pounding a red conga and grinning up a storm! A "venturesome swot" - I want one of those LOL
