T is for Totem pole

My silly big sister

decided she’d make

a totem pole

for our reunion gift exchange.

I’m not sure if she knew what a totem pole was.

She bought a big Styrofoam T

(for Totem pole),

painted it green,

and stuck on scrapbook decals

that had to do with Shannons

and the Irish, pot of gold, Shamrock,

fishing pole, lawnmower, gardening things,

plus photos of Mom and Dad.

I love it, but I wish she used

an S for Shannon,

not a T for Totem pole.
